Principal’s Corner: I would like to encourage you to participate in our FREE math help for our parents/guardians. During the month of February, we will hold classes from 4:00-5:00 on Tuesday afternoons to help parents/guardians better understand the math their children are learning. We are teaching the children to “think”. Imagine that! Please call the school office at 947-5401 so we can plan for the number of parents who attend. Please see the schedule below.

Have you read with/to your child lately? It is extremely important that your child read every day! The more your child reads the better reader they become. Please require and encourage your child to read. What a great opportunity for you to spend some quality time with your child reading together.
