A couple of weeks ago we sent home the yearbook flyers from the company that included instructions for ordering a yearbook.... Turns out, the link on that flyer does not work. We apologize! Please use the link below and it should take you directly to the page for ordering.

🤒 Too Sick for School? 💚
Parents, just a friendly reminder — if your child goes home throwing up or with a fever, they must be fever-free and medicine-free for at least 24 hours before returning to school.
Thank you for helping us follow this important policy! 💪 This helps keep our classrooms healthy and learning strong for everyone. 🏫✨
📸 See the image below for more guidance on when a child may be too sick for school.
It is HAPPENING!! The fences are up and now the walls are coming down! Eeeeek!! Yay!! We can't wait for our new gym to be up and ready for our little Dragons! 🎉 ❤️🐲❤️ 🚧
Remember today is FREE hat day honoring our Veterans! We are thankful for their service and PROUD to be Americans! ❤️🫶🏽🐲🇺🇸🪖🎖️
