Share your Christmas is coming up

Each year, our students have a food drive to collect as many non-perishable food items as possible.  This food is then distributed right here in our community to those individuals who may not be able to enjoy a heart-warming Christmas dinner.  Our food drive will kick off on December the 3rd with an assembly during the day, and will end on December the 14th.  Please help support our community by sending food items with your child.  As always, there will be a competition among each class to see who can bring in the most food!

The Down Low From Mr. Lowe....

November has arrived in a flash. This school year seems to be going by in leaps and bounds. It really is hard to believe we have exited yet another month. Our teachers and students are extremely busy preparing for their future. I hope everyone had a good experience at parent/teacher conferences. Our building had a participation rate of 90+ percent. Don’t worry if you could not make the conference, as we will be happy to set up another time to discuss your child’s education. As we begin to enter the weeks leading up to the holiday breaks things will get more hectic. I encourage each parent to ask their children about what happened during school and if there is any work to be done. We, like you, want the best for your child and their future. It’s extremely hard work but, we owe it to them and their future to keep pushing them to new heights. We are here to help you and want you to be a part of our educational team. Together, we can build a solid foundation for a better tomorrow.

Veteran's Day, Wednesday, November 11, 2009!! 

Our students got to witness the landing of a Black Hawk helicopter!  We also had a special assembly with Sergeant Pharis.  All of our students appreciate each and every veteran in our community for what you do to ensure our safety and freedom!!!
