Black History Month

Happy Third Quarter! Can you believe we're already diving into the third one? Time sure flies when you're having fun learning and growing together. We want to take a moment to appreciate our fantastic students for their hard work and resilience. A shoutout to our awesome teachers and staff for making the first half of the year a success. As we enter this second half of the school year, let's continue to uphold our shared values, celebrate our caring community, and acknowledge the victories, big and small. Here's to continued laughter and learning in the coming months.

Warm Regards,

Ms. Drake, Mr. Hirsch, and Ms. Long
