From the PTA moms: Today we had the chance to give our amazing teachers a little break by taking over recess duty while they enjoyed a hydration station filled with drinks, snacks, and a few well-deserved moments to recharge 💛 Teaching takes so much energy, patience, love, and heart every single day, and we are so thankful for all they pour into our kids. Today was just a small way to remind them how appreciated they truly are. “You can’t pour from an empty cup… so take a moment to fill yours up.” ☀️🥤 Happy Teacher Appreciation Week to the incredible teachers and staff who make our school such a special place! 🍎✨ #TeacherAppreciationWeek

☕️🍎“Thanks a latte for all you do!”🍎☕️ We loved getting to treat our amazing teachers and staff to a little pick-me-up as a small token of our BIG appreciation. You keep everything running smoothly and truly make each day brighter, no matter what comes your way! We appreciate you “a latte”… even with all the daily “grinds” ☕️💛 Thank you for everything you pour into our students! #TeacherAppreciation

Good morning school family!
I sincerely apologize, I sent out to each of you a link for P/T conferences for you to meet with your students' teachers if you wanted or needed to, but it was all linked to my calendar! So only a few were able to sign up! That error is now fixed, so if you follow that link I sent you, you should be able to sign up now through that link!!
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out, happy Thursday!

Good morning parents of grades 3 - 10! Since they went to Healdsburg to watch the Lion King at Rio Lindo Academy, they got out a tad bit later. They are on their way back to school now, but we wanted to give you a heads up that it might be closer to a 12:30 for pickup time.
See you all soon, and happy Friday!
