We’re now in the final weeks of the school year and making plans for a smooth and academically-based finish for your children.  As we finish one year, we’re also preparing for the next.  That work includes hiring people to fill any vacancies which occur.  Once the roster of teacher assignments for the following year is finalized (although sometimes openings also occur in the summer), that information is communicated to our school community, and student placement information to families follows after that.

Our recent Science Fair was a tremendous activity, and I thank Mrs. Colleen Springer, our Library/Media Specialist, for organizing it and our many young scientists for preparing and presenting projects of great quality.

I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their thoughts and kind words as I coped with some sort of a virus, an allergic reaction to some medicines I was given, and finally a bout of diverticulitis, all within a period of a few weeks.  I guess if troubles come in threes, then I am all set for a while.   

 Please consult the Calendar of Events for other important activities related to our school community.       

Thank you for all you do to make our school a community of respectful, responsible, and safe learners.  A total of 299 postcards and other contacts (via telephone or email) have been made to recognize and reinforce positive student behavior.    We are happy to report that 302 good deeds for others have also been reported to the office.
