Alien Inline Residency – K-4 Students
The residency begins at our school the first day back from break. We look forward to providing students with this opportunity. Please connect with your child’s teacher if you are able to volunteer.
March 20/21 Parent Student Teacher Conferences
Thank you to all families for signing up for an online conference. This is one of the key opportunities for scheduled communication with your child’s classroom teacher throughout the year. Ongoing communication with your child’s classroom teacher(s) is an important part of supporting student learning throughout the year.
