Note From Principal Frank
Dear Mustangs,
Can you believe October has already come to a close? This month has flown by, with so many fun learning activities and events. We loved celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month together, sharing fun fall-themed activities, seeing the bright smiles on picture day, and welcoming kids back from field trips with big smiles. Even capping it off with a surprise power outage today–we sure have had a fun month! Thanks for checking out our dates and details shared below!
In collaboration,
Principal Frank
