To help our students stay on track while schools are closed, we recommend the following daily routine:
Reading: At least 20 minutes of a book of their choice.
Homework: Review any current assignments.
Digital Learning: Log into Clever to access iReady, Lexia, and Google Classroom.
Thank you for helping us keep the learning going at home!

The high note of the morning, however, was celebrating our Students of the Month. This month, we focused on a very special trait: Empathy.
In a world where you can be anything, these students chose to be kind. Whether it’s supporting a friend, standing up for a classmate, or simply listening with an open heart, these honorees remind us that character is just as important as academics.
Congratulations to our "Empathy Ambassadors"—you make our school a better place every day!
