Sandy Sheppard, Elementary School Principal

 

Dear Parents,

Welcome back to a new school year! We hope you have had a wonderful summer filled with fun and relaxation. We are excited to welcome our returning families and extend a special greeting to all the new families joining our school community.

We look forward to seeing you all on August 20th.

As we embark on this journey together, we look forward to a year filled with learning, growth, and memorable experiences. Our dedicated staff is here to support every child’s success, and we cannot wait to see all the amazing things our students will achieve.

I encourage you to read these weekly messages for important updates, celebration of learning, reminders, and information on events.

In the coming days, you will receive information about our new class communication tool, Toddle. Your child’s classroom teacher will use this tool to communicate with you weekly.

REMINDERS

Class lists will be posted in convenient locations on the first day of school. Adults will be available to help your child find their new classroom.

Please remember that during this time, we only have dedicated adult supervision on campus in the morning from 7:30 AM.

Elementary Students will be dismissed on the front steps each day. They may only remain on campus after school hours with an adult.

Warm regards,

Ms. Sandy Sheppard
