Principal's Message
Thank you for attending Back to School Night last week. We appreciate your participation and this year, more than ever, it is important that we build a strong partnership between families and teachers. If you weren’t able to attend, please be sure to look through your teacher’s slides or recorded presentation so you know what to expect for the coming year. Or reach out to your child’s teachers directly.
Mr. Domer’s Office Hours will be on Tuesdays at noon for one hour. Stop in at any time. This Tuesday will be my first session. Please join me for anything you might want to discuss or anything you need help with. I am happy to simply connect. Zoom link below:
