Our 2nd graders kicked off our new Arts & Letters Unit, "A Season of Change," with a hands-on art experience inspired by the changing seasons! Students created beautiful paintings using real leaves, using the chlorophyll from the leaves to paint and explore the natural colors and changes happening around us.

Welcome Back!

As students and staff return to school for another year, let’s all do our part in keeping safety at the forefront of our minds at school, at home, and on the road.

·       Watch for school buses.  Slow down and never pass a stopped school bus with its lights flashing.

·       Drive safely in school zones.  Slow down, pay attention, and watch carefully for students, parents, crossing guards, and school staff.

·       Stay alert.  It only takes a few seconds of distraction to change a life forever.

·       School safety starts when we leave our homes. It doesn’t just depend on what happens inside our school buildings.

Let’s work together to ensure every student and staff member arrives at school and returns home Safe and Sound.

The volume of traffic will increase this week. Please be patient as we work together getting back in the routine of drop off and pick up.

Welcome back, Wampus Cats!
