Dear Panther Families,
What a wonderful first week of October. The weather is mixing between summer and fall. Opportunities for outdoor recess and walk to school day were appreciated by all of our Panthers. Fall picture day was great with students and staff looking "picture day ready."
We hope to see many of you at Field Day next Friday. Please remember that you must come to the front office and sign in on the Visitor Management System with your photo ID before heading to the Field Day activities. You must sign in and get a sticker as a volunteer or a visitor.
Have a fantastic weekend!
Ms. Andujar and Ms. Walker
