Dear Cardinal Families,
Our first week of school has been full of excitement and joy! The salad bar returned and we are learning that our students love to eat the colors of the rainbow. We are looking forward to making many wonderful memories with you and your child(ren) this year!
Sincerely,
Allison Hoak, Principal
Jon Kemmerer, Assistant Principal
Back-to-School Night Meet and Greet will be on Wednesday, August 30 between 6:00-7:30 pm.

Stop by classrooms anytime between 6:00-7:30 pm to meet your child’s teacher and see the classroom. If you are not able to join us, the presentations will be posted on our website. If you have specific questions regarding your child, please contact the teacher to set up a conference. Specialists will be in the library to share about their programming.
