Principals' Message

Dear Families,

As we transition into May, we are thrilled to celebrate the upcoming Staff Appreciation Week, where we'll honor the amazing individuals who dedicate themselves to the growth and success of our students. We're deeply grateful for the generous donations from families to make this week truly special. Your support means the world to us. Please continue to send in contributions so we can ensure our staff feel truly cherished and valued.

Additionally, we're gearing up for our state assessments, a time when our students have the opportunity to showcase their knowledge and skills. To help them perform their best, please ensure they are well-rested and ready to shine on the days of their assessments.

As we approach the end of the school year, our eagles are eagerly anticipating a host of fun end-of-year activities. It's a time to celebrate their achievements, growth, and the wonderful community we've built together.

Thank you for your continued support and partnership in making our school such a vibrant and nurturing environment for our students and staff.

Warm regards,

Ms. Rucinski and Mrs. Opie
