🎃 Halloween Dress-Up Day – Friday, October 30! 👻

Get ready for Halloween! Our main Halloween celebration will take place on Friday, October 30, when students and staff are invited to dress up in their favorite Halloween costumes. We’ll have a costume contest with prizes, along with a Halloween Carnival during the day featuring fun games, challenges, and more prizes for students to enjoy. Over the next two weeks, students will also have opportunities to earn tickets as they prepare for the festivities. We’re looking forward to a fun-filled day of creativity, laughter, and Halloween spirit!

Quarter One Reports 📝

Quarter One reports for all students, from Early Years through Teens, will be sent to families by email on Friday, October 23. These reports share each student’s progress, learning, and development throughout the first quarter. We hope they give families a helpful look at what students have been working on and how they are growing. Thank you for your continued support as we begin Quarter Two!

ECAs Start Next Week! ⚽

Our Extracurricular Activities (ECAs) will begin next week, running every Monday and Wednesday from 3:30–4:15 PM. Please make sure students are picked up promptly at 4:15 PM. We’re excited to get our new round of activities underway!
