“National Take Your Parent to Lunch Day” was celebrated recently. We would like to invite parents or guardians to a luncheon at your our school on Thursday, October 20, 2022. Please join us for a tasty meal in our cafe’ and meet our staff.  The cost of an Adult Meal is $3.00 per person.  In order to have enough food, we asked for you to turn in your RSVP by last Friday.  

 
We value your opinion as parents/guardians as to how we are doing educating your child. As a Title I school we periodically ask you to complete surveys providing us with your feedback and perceptions of our school. Please take a few moments to complete the survey linked below. You can also find it on our school website.
