Important Information

Welcome back, Warriors! We are so excited to see our students on Monday.

A few helpful tips for a successful first week at school:


  • Practice routines with students. Go to bed at a time that will leave your child well rested and ready to learn.
  • Discuss expectations for dismissal and how your child will go home (car, bus, walker).
  • Reassure young children that they will come home at the end of the school day.
  • Refillable water bottles will help your child stay hydrated.
