Attendance Survey Contest

Friendly Reminders

This is a friendly reminder to wear green on Monday, March 17.

We’re excited to inform you that the school is hosting a contest where your child's classroom can win a pizza party! The first class that achieves a 100% completion rate on the school survey will not only win the pizza party. The grade with the most surveys handed in will have the chance to duct-tape our Principal Ms. Serafin. Let the games begin!

Also, we are organizing two workshops for Summer Rising: today, Friday, March 14, from 3:00 to 4:30 PM, and Wednesday, March 19, from 10:00 to 11:00 AM. Both workshops will take place in person. If you need help applying for Summer Rising, feel free to stop by!

Additionally, we sent home information yesterday about free scholarships for kindergarten through 5th grade. This is a fantastic opportunity to start saving money for your child's future education.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out to Ms. Trinidad at [email protected].
