Attention 5th Grade Families: Due to the forecasted rain for tomorrow, May 14th, a decision has been made to move 5th Grade CommUNITY Day to the scheduled rain date of May 15th. Please plan to have your student arrive at school in their Class T-shirt and sneakers on Thursday instead.
We are keeping an eye on the weather, and if, in consultation with our meteorology service provider, the forecast looks as if we need to reschedule again, we will identify a new date and communicate that information to you tomorrow.
Due to the forecast of rain tomorrow, the Spring Fair is postponed to ensure the safety and enjoyment of all our families and volunteers.
The new date for the Spring Fair is Friday, May 16, 2025, from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM.
