Veterans Day (November 11, 2021)

This Veterans Day we are excited to honor our service members by having six outdoor "Celebration Stations" where our students will do hands-on activities to learn more about military life.

We are still looking for scout leaders to teach our students a few facts about the American flag. If you are interested in volunteering to help for a one-hour block, please see the sign-up genius link and more information and guidelines will be provided for each area. 

To comply with CDC guidelines and keep our students and staff safe during the school day, we are limiting activities to our students and the volunteers for this day. There will be limited spaces available for parents of 5th or 6th graders who are performing in band, strings, and/or chorus to attend. These parents will receive a message from their directors today to sign up for a time slot. 

As we know, this is an important event and would love to have more people experience this day with us. We will be posting a video and/or pictures to share the many ways our students have participated.

Field Day is BACK!

We need you!

On November 12th, the students will be having fun participating in Field Day games.  The rain date will be November 19th.  Our Kindergarten will have their own field day later in the spring.

This fun filled event cannot be successful without our awesome parent volunteers, and we need your help. We still have many spots open! If this is a way you can support and help us out we would greatly appreciate and welcome you on this day! Please use the Sign-up Geniuses below to volunteer for a specific time and activity. Feel free to sign up for more than one time slot if that interests you.  We ask that all volunteers wear masks while on school property during the day.  Thank you!
