Woohoo! We’ve had a great start to the year! 🎉

Thank you so much for helping make drop-off and pick-up run so smoothly. We appreciate how you are helping to keep our Cubs safe. We couldn’t do it without you!

We have one important reminder to help us keep dismissal safe and moving smoothly for everyone:

Please stay in your car during pick-up and do not walk up to the door or cafeteria. We will call your student to you as you drive up. This helps us keep students safe and keeps the pick-up line moving smoothly.

Thank you for helping us make dismissal safe and smooth for every Cub! 💙🐻

Dismissal
Welcome back to a brand-new school year! We are so excited to see both returning faces and new families fill our hallways with energy, curiosity, and community. Our team has been working hard all summer to prepare an incredible year of learning, growth, and memorable experiences for your students.

Important Calendar Reminder

To help keep your child’s learning on track, we’ve attached a handy Non-School Days Calendar for the upcoming academic year. We strongly encourage you to keep this image saved on your phone or posted on the fridge. Whenever possible, please use these scheduled days off—including professional development days, holidays, and extended breaks—to book routine doctor, dentist, and personal appointments. Minimizing mid-day checkouts helps ensure your child doesn't miss out on vital instruction and classroom activities.

Thank you for your ongoing partnership and support in making attendance a priority. Let’s make this school year our best one yet!

¡Bienvenidos de nuevo a un nuevo año escolar! Estamos muy emocionados de ver a todas las familias llenar nuestros pasillos de energía, curiosidad y comunidad. Nuestro equipo ha trabajado muy duro todo el verano para preparar un año increíble de aprendizaje, crecimiento y experiencias memorables para sus estudiantes.

Un Recordatorio Importante del Calendario

Para ayudar a mantener el aprendizaje de su hijo/a al día, hemos adjuntado un práctico Calendario de Días No Lectivos para el próximo año académico. Les recomendamos encarecidamente guardar esta imagen en su teléfono o tenerla en el refrigerador. Siempre que sea posible, utilicen estos días libres programados—incluidos los días de desarrollo profesional, días festivos y vacaciones—para programar citas médicas, dentales y personales de rutina. Minimizar las salidas a mitad de la jornada ayuda a garantizar que su hijo no se pierda la instrucción ni las actividades esenciales del salón de clases.

Gracias por su colaboración continua y por apoyarnos a hacer de la asistencia una prioridad. ¡Hagamos de este el mejor año escolar hasta ahora!
