A Note From Our Principal
Happy New Year! I hope you all had a healthy and happy holiday season. Thank you for your incredible generosity last month. The teachers, administrative team, and I truly appreciate all the gifts and notes we received. These thoughts of appreciation mean so much to us and bring a huge smile to our faces. We also thank you for your participation in our holiday giving initiative. We were able to donate estimated $700 in 33 gift cards for the Olney Help.
We can’t wait to spend 2023 with your children!
Sincerely,
Ms. Shelly
Martin Luther King, Jr. Day
January is a great time to reflect on the important work of Martin Luther King, Jr. Although we explore diversity and inclusion all year, we have many activities planned this month to celebrate his life specifically. We’ll be reading books, making arts and crafts, discussing the importance of acceptance and belonging, and much more.
Priority Re-Enrollment
It may be only January, but it’s time to start planning for the fall! There has been an overwhelming demand for our January 21st open house, so we want to make sure you secure your child’s spot for next school year. Priority re-enrollment will run from February 6th through March 18th. More information will be sent via Links 2 Home.
