Athletics - See updates on our Athletics Page   

Each day this week has seen students out of the building on field study activities.  Seeing this brings out so many different things – welcome thoughts of the approaching spring, but also a deep sense of gratitude to those parents and caregivers who volunteer their time to support these valuable learning opportunities.  The success of our students and our program as a whole is dependent on this support, and I wish to express that I recognize that our successes come as an entire learning team.  Thank you! 

Our spring athletics season is winding down with our boys and girls volleyball teams beginning their playoff pushes for our division.  These student athletes have done a tremendous job representing our school and learning new skills.   

I am looking forward to this year’s edition of Kid Inventor Day, to be held tomorrow, as one of our most significant celebrations of the school year!
