The Kindergarten team will meet with incoming Kindergarten students by appointment on Tuesday, July 25th. This time together will help teachers plan instruction tailored to student needs starting on the first day of school. It also gives the students another opportunity to meet the Kindergarten teachers which can make for a smoother start to their Kindergarten year!

SIGN UP HERE

The screenings will be done one on one with your child and a Kindergarten teacher. The screening will take 10 minutes.

Thank you for signing up for a Kindergarten Screening! 🙂

Teacher Appreciation Week Success

A huge thank you to all of our students and parents who supported our staff last week during Teacher Appreciation Week. We are also so grateful for the support of several local businesses – Pancho & Lefty’s, who provided an ENTIRE lunch for our staff free of charge, as well as Coco’s Italian Market, Sweetability, Brightside Bakeshop, and Bradley’s Creamery, who provided their services at a discounted rate so that we could spoil our teachers!

Hattie B’s Success!

We raised $1500 for our school thanks to everyone who came out for our restaurant fundraiser with Hattie B’s. They are a terrific partner, and we are grateful to have such generous businesses in the neighborhood! Next up is M.L. Rose in May!!
