Dear Families,

At the heart of our mission is the belief that regular attendance, combined with high-quality instruction, leads to student success. This year, we are placing a strong emphasis on literacy and foundational math skills, ensuring that every student gains the critical tools they need to succeed academically. 

We proudly support our multilingual learners, and are committed to providing resources and instruction that help all students feel confident and capable in their learning journey.
