Hello from Mrs. McCauley
Hello from Mrs. McCauley
We had a great full week of school! It is wonderful to walk through the school and hear learning and laughter from each classroom. Our students are doing a great job learning routines and getting used to being in our building. They truly are a terrific group and it is great to watch all of the friendships forming. We enjoy seeing their smiling faces every morning and are blessed to be with them every day. Please continue to reach out with any questions or concerns.

If you arrive after 7:25, please bring your child in through the front doors. The back door does not have a buzzer. You must also stop in the office to sign you child in.
Please remember that students should be in shoes with closed toes and with a back as stated in our uniform policy. This is the most comfortable for student learning and play. Athletic shoes are the best option, ,please stay away from crocs as students tend to trip over them at recess.
