Lunar New Year
Lunar New Year

Dear Poplar Tree Families,

It was another busy week filled with excitement and learning. Today is the Lunar New Year. As we bid farewell to the year of the water rabbit and welcome the Year of the wood dragon, we want to take this opportunity to wish everyone in our community a joyous and prosperous Lunar New Year! The dragon represents power, nobility, and good luck. Good luck in the year ahead and may your year be filled with abundance of smiles and laughter.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Sue Andujar, Principal 

Amy Alley, Assistant Principal

Please share your favorite photos using THIS FORM by February 16, 2023, and let's create a yearbook that reflects the incredible experiences of our students.
