From the Principal's Desk
Dear families,
What a wonderful and busy week it has been! We have enjoyed a fun performance from the band and eagerly anticipate tonight‘s chorus performance. Classrooms are abuzz with celebrations of learning and festive class parties. And we look forward to seeing everyone in their snuggly PJs tomorrow for our final spirit day of 2019. Have a wonderful holiday season and enjoyable break with your families. Join me for our monthly parent coffee with the principal the Wednesday we return, during which I will be sharing information about our arts integration partnership with the Kennedy Center. We look forward to a new year of learning in 2020!
Warm regards,
Diane Leipzig, Dr. L
