Welcome to summer!

We hope you are enjoying a fun and relaxing summer break with your children, as we prepare for the coming 2019-2020 school year.    Students in grades 1 – 5 will return to school, Monday, August 12, and our Kindergarteners will be joining us on a staggered schedule (Read more about Kindergarten Staggered Start.)  Open House Orientations will be Thursday, August 8, from 6 -7 pm for our Kindergarteners and Friday, August 9, from 8 – 12 for all students in Grades 1 – 5.
