Parents,

Today is my last day in the office for a few weeks. We will be back very soon to prepare for the upcoming 2014-15 School Year. I am already excited!

I hope that the students are having a safe and relaxing time. I miss them!

I would like to take a moment to introduce our assistant principal, Shawn Hayden. She is coming to us from Northern Hills Elementary where she served as their assistant principal for five years. She is excited and passionate about joining our tiger team. I've heard so many great things from her former principals and look forward to having her share her talents with us. I can't wait for you all to meet her!!!

Please let your family, friends, and neighbors know that we will begin registration again on August 4th.

Thank you,

Tara Bailey

Parents,

We are looking forward to a great last week of school with the students! Over the summer, I will not be sending eBlast messages so that you can relax and enjoy your family time. I will begin those again the week I return from my summer break, July 30th. Teachers will return the third week of August to prepare their classrooms and once classes have officially been determined, you will receive an email video message from the 2014-15 teacher introducing themselves to your child(ren). Be sure you have an updated email address with the current teacher before summer. We will use these email addresses to reach out to your children via technology!
