From the Principal
"When you meet your obstacles with gratitude, your perception starts to shift, resistance loses its power, and grace finds a home within you." - Oprah Winfrey
Thank you to the many families who have reached out to me. My heart is overwhelmed with gratitude for the kindness shown to me in our school community. Please continue to stay well!

Classroom Information – Teachers are communicating with students in a variety of ways including via Google Classroom, Google Meet, Zoom, Flip Grid, Teacher-tube, and utilizing a variety of instructional strategies/resources to support student learning.
Schedule:
- During this time, we encourage you to create a family schedule balancing school work, screen time, creative activities, exercise, chores, reading those just right books, outdoor activities and free time. Please know that our teaching staff is on their own journey with remote/distance learning and that lessons and interactions will evolve over time. We SO appreciate your patience and support.
Social Distancing: I want to reiterate the critical importance of safe social distancing.
Continue to stay healthy, hold your kiddos close and find the joy in EVERY day!
Warmly,
Mrs. Doyle
