Thank you to everyone who came to the PTO safety meeting last week. We are always looking for ways to make our campus safer. Here is the presentation from that meeting https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1RaF5BWm4jehvfWJCGZbc4JKoeflqe-AZo3bASTQmXlg/edit?usp=sharing. The changes we will be making:
1. We will have an armed security guard outside the church on Fridays when our students are present.
2. Church doors will be locked at 8am. No late entry permitted.
3. We will be having one security-focused PTO meeting per year.
4. We will be doing an audit on our security camera system this summer.

We will have additional room in our preschool classroom next year and are currently accepting two-year-olds! If you are interested in enrolling your child, please call the school office for an appointment.

Final service hour & fundraising charges will be billed this week. Please email me directly if you have any questions.
