Dear Parents/ Guardians,
Hope you all are having a wonderful summer! Welcome especially to our new families who will be joining us for the 2023-2024 school year! We are busy preparing to welcome our students on Wednesday, August 16.
For our returning families, we are trying a different format for the Trumpet this year. You will be able to easily access archived issues and take advantage of the table of contents at the top of the page. We are also trying to streamline our calendars. I encourage you to add our school calendar to your phone calendar so you easily have it accessible.
Stay cool and enjoy your last days of summer!
