A Note from the Principal

Wednesday 1/22, the church has rented out the parking lot & there will be no parking in the lot on Wednesday.  You may enter through the first driveway and exit through Hamlin as usual. We will allow entrance through the Hamlin gate (please walk through the school office). There will also be no assembly on that day, so we encourage all parents to use the valet drop-off if possible. Please allow additional time for pickup on that day. We appreciate your patience and cooperation.

Please join us for a parent workshop on Wednesday January 22nd at 5:00PM-5:45PM, Setting the Stage for Learning at Home.
