Message from the Principals
Happy New Year!
We hope everyone had an enjoyable and relaxing winter break. As we embark on a new year, we are looking forward to many exciting school activities planned for Our eagles in 2020! We are looking forward to seeing our families at the end of the month for our Heritage Night on Thursday, January 30th.
As we begin a new year it is always an opportunity to pause and reflect on goals that your students have set for themselves. Take a moment to discuss their progress towards their goals and strategies they may want to implement to reach them. We will continue our work on becoming goal-directed and resilient learners into the new year.
Fondly,
Mrs. Rogers and Ms. Rucinski
