Big congratulations to Mrs. Blecha, one of our amazing 4th grade teachers, for receiving a $500 classroom grant from American 1 Credit Union!

September is Attendance Awareness Month!
Did you know? Half the students who miss just 2–4 days in September go on to miss nearly a month of school over the year. That’s a lot of lost learning — and every day matters!
*Attendance builds strong habits
*Keeps students connected
*Helps them succeed now and in the future
Let’s work together to make school a place where every day counts. 💛💙
Attendance Matters — Keep Showing Up!

Bus route 1 (North side of Lake Columbia, Hewitt Rd & N. Hayes) is running about 20 minutes late this morning . We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience!
