Dear Stone Families, 

As we approach the end of another remarkable school year, I want to take a moment to reflect on the incredible journey we've had together. Our students are capable of success…No exceptions! This past week has been nothing short of amazing, filled with celebrations, achievements, and memories that will last a lifetime.

Our eighth graders' transition to high school marks a significant milestone in their lives, and we couldn't be prouder of their accomplishments. Their hard work, dedication, and resilience have prepared them well for the exciting journey ahead.

Moreover, our commitment to punctuality was celebrated with a vibrant "No Tardy Party" for those students who maintained punctuality throughout the fourth quarter. It's inspiring to see our students embodying such responsibility and discipline.

Spirit Week was a blast, showcasing the boundless creativity and enthusiasm of our student body. I'm thrilled to announce that our "Anything But a Backpack Day" was a hit and will undoubtedly become a cherished tradition for years to come.

Let's carry this momentum into our final stretch with the same vigor and enthusiasm. 

  • Monday: 7th Grade Awards Ceremony
  • Monday: Kona Ice Truck Fundraiser at 3pm
  • Wednesday: Last Day of School/End of Year Party

Lastly, a reminder that Wednesday will be a 2 hour early dismissal day. 

As we count down the days to summer break, let's cherish these final moments together and continue to support and uplift one another. Thank you for your unwavering dedication and support throughout this extraordinary year.
