🚍 Honoring Our Heroes Behind the Wheel! 💛

It’s Bus Driver Appreciation Week, and we want to take a moment to celebrate the wonderful drivers who safely transport our students every single day, rain or shine! ☀️🌧️

Our amazing PTO is thrilled to treat our driver team this week with some delicious treats:
🍩 Fresh donuts, generously donated by Entenmann's
🍪 Delicious cookies, generously donated by Debbie's Daughters
🍿 Snack bags to keep them fueled on the road!

How can YOU help show your appreciation?
Take a moment this week to say a extra big "thank you!" when dropping off or picking up your child, or have your student draw a picture or write a short thank-you note for their driver. A little kindness goes a long way! ✏️🎨

Let’s make sure our drivers know just how much they mean to our school community! Drop a comment below to share your appreciation or favorite memory! 👇❤️

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the pile of our beloved Lost & Found residents. They came to us as $80 sweatshirts, zip-up hoodies, and water bottles left behind on the playground, hoping for a joyous reunion that never came.

These loving items watch your child walk by each day. They spend their days patiently waiting on the rack, dreaming of returning home to their favorite closets and laundry baskets.

A Celebration of Life (and Pick-Up):
Final Viewing: Now through Friday during conferences
Location: The main hallway Lost & Found

Please take a moment to look over the photo below—your child's long-lost favorite hoodie might be waiting for them.

Gone from your closet, but never forgotten.
