We love crayons, construction paper, pencils, and all things school supplies! Thank you to LS3P for donating a ton of school supplies and a wagon to our school! Our teachers loved choosing things for their classroom and students to prepare for the new school year.
After a long morning of learning about all the exciting new developments in JCPS, our staff enjoyed a lunch catered by Smithfield Chicken 'N BBQ and teas from Healthy Teas. Gathering in our houses not only filled our bellies but also strengthened our community bonds across grade levels and departments, making for a wonderful day!
Exciting news! Our amazing Tonya Smith has just sent out postcards to our fantastic 1st-5th graders. Keep an eye on your mailbox because your postcard is on its way! 📬 And for our eager Kindergarteners, the big reveal of who your teacher will be is happening at Open House. Get ready for a fun surprise! 🎈We can't wait to see all of our Bulldogs!!!!🐾🎉

Have a wonderful evening!
Please see our app, school website, or your email for important information about remediation and retesting.
Good Evening Bulldogs,
Our 3rd, 4th, and 5th Grade teachers have either reached out to you already or will reach out to you this week to let you know if your child is eligible for retesting. Any student that received "not proficient" on an EOG is eligible to come in for remediation on June 7 and retesting on June 10, 11, and/or 12. We have not yet met our goal as a school so we are encouraging all students to try again. Some were just one or two points away! Transportation, breakfast, and lunch will be provided on remediation and retesting days. We will also operate on an early release schedule so students will dismiss at 1:45 pm. Please let your child's teacher know if your child will participate. We will also be sending home documentation to let you know how to access your child's scores. Have a wonderful evening!
So excited to celebrate with Mrs. Sarah Willoughby today!! She's was recognized today as Assistant Principal of the Month for May. Huge thanks to Old Fashioned Ice Cream for their support of our administrators and our schools.
We have one last volunteer opportunity this school year. We need one parent per class to help out for just 20 minutes Wednesday, May 28 - Wednesday, June 5. We are excited to provide this opportunity for our students as we end the year!
Let's wrap up the school year with celebrations and a BOOK FAIR! Check out our awards schedule online and then stop by the library to shop the summer book fair with your child. The book fair will be open for shopping for 6 days, from Wednesday to Wednesday, May 29-June 5th.
