Happy Veterans Day.


Today was our first day to recognize Mustang award recipients. The Mustang award recognizes students for making others feel safe, happy, respected, and loved. We had over 30 students nominated this week and we'll continue to look for these behaviors every week. Thanks to all of these amazing students. We're so proud of you!




Our Veterans Day celebration was a huge success! Big thanks to Mrs. Borton, Mrs. Aupperle, Mr. Marchese, and all others who contributed. In addition, we appreciate all of our community Veterans who were and were not in attendance. Thank you all for your service and sacrifice.

Due to driver shortages tonight (11/7) we have had to combine a few afterschool routes. The routes impacted are #25 (Brian), #29 (JC), and # 32 (Marci). Drop off times, order, and bus driver may be different than other nights. We should be back to regular schedule by tomorrow morning. Please contact your child's school if you have any questions.
Thank you for your cooperation and patience,
Mr. Young

Check out our new school charter! A charter is an agreement we make to act in ways that help us feel the way we want to feel in our school. Everyone had a voice in creating our charter! Watch your student's backpack for an informational letter!
