Happy Wednesday, Gator Families!

Time is almost up before our Gator fun run TOMORROW! We’re grateful for the support we’ve seen toward reaching our goal of $15,000 for guided reading books and teacher training!

Here are a few reminders before your student(s) participate in the big event:

● 😴Have your student(s) get a good night’s rest. Our event will be about 30 minutes of movement.

● 👟Make sure your student(s) wear appropriate foot and clothing attire to move and groove.

● 🌊Make sure your student(s) bring a water bottle to stay hydrated!

Below are the times for each grade level. Parents are welcome to attend as long as they have passed a background check.

coming april 8th!!!

We have an exciting educational opportunity that will be taking place on April 8th of this year -- the viewing of the Great North American Eclipse.

On this day, a rare astronomical event will occur, providing a unique learning experience for our students. The eclipse is an excellent opportunity for students to engage with science, astronomy, and the natural world. Many of our teachers will be incorporating this event into their lesson plans to enhance the educational experience for all students.

The safety of our students is our top priority; we will take all necessary precautions to ensure that the eclipse viewing is conducted in a safe and supervised manner. Protective eyewear is being donated for each student by the Perot Museum of Nature and Science.

We believe that this event will be a valuable and memorable learning experience for our students, and we encourage you to discuss it with your child. If you have any questions or concerns, or if you wish for your child to not participate, please let us know.
