Please consider contributing to our Holiday staff collection. We provide Amazon gift cards to faculty in August to start the school year, and this is an opportunity to support the rest of our great staff during the holidays! Donate by TOMORROW!

Our art room is in need of some supplies! Please support Ms. Williams and her stellar art program by visiting the Amazon wish list here and sponsoring an item or two. Thank you for your help!

Thank you to all the families and friends that came out to our Thanksgiving Lunch last Thursday for Kindergarten, 2nd and 4th grades! 

Thank you to everyone who helped make last week’s book fair such a success. Our volunteers worked hard to help with set up, shop assistance and pack up. We raised over $3,000 for our school library and spread lots of joy, smiles and memories to our Panthers! 

We are continuing our second school-wide seminar this week. All students will participate in a seminar using the fable The Lion and the Mouse by Jerry Pinkney between November 14-22. During this seminar, students will discuss the ideas and values of kindness, strength, acceptance, and compassion. Our post-seminar activity will ask students to write and illustrate a card thanking someone for his/her kindness. Ask your child about this exciting and engaging learning experience.
