Celebrating One Month of School! 🎉
Today marked a joyful milestone as we celebrated one month since the start of the school year! Our young scholars were honored in a special gathering attended by school and State officials, who joined us to recognize the students' enthusiasm, growth, and commitment to learning.
Each student received a symbolic “return ticket,” promising to come back to school on Friday after enjoying a well-deserved holiday on Thursday. The event was filled with smiles, encouragement, and a shared excitement for the journey ahead.
We’re proud of our scholars and grateful to our staff and families for their continued support. Here's to many more months of learning, laughter, and success!

Good morning families!

Also, the new LEAP bus assigned to your child will be Monday - Thursday. On Friday, they will take their regular bus home.
