We had a great turn out!  Please note that the parent workshop from Ms. Farrohi has been moved to October 16th at 5pm. Please take some time to join us! Our C3 Ignite technology grant devices have come in! We received one iPad per student in grades K-8th. Students will use these devices in the classroom and may bring them home as needed at the teachers' discretion. Permission slips will go home this week. Please sign and return ASAP. Progress reports will be published on Wednesday this week. Please log in to Schoolspeak and check your student's grades.  Our Jog-a-Thon "Bounce-a-Thon" is sure to be one of the best days of the school year! Be sure to register: The money raised at this event will help us grow our school program. Thank you to everyone who signed up to volunteer! Parents who want to come to watch are welcome. The event will start at 9am.
