Principal's Message

September 2025

Dear Families,

Welcome to the 2025–2026 school year! I hope your summer was filled with rest, joy, and meaningful time with loved ones. As we begin this new chapter together, I want to extend a warm welcome back to all our students, families, and staff. We are thrilled to see our school community come alive again with energy, curiosity, and connection.

Our first day of school for all students is Thursday, September 4, 2025, and we are ready to greet everyone with open arms and bright smiles. Please remember: there’s no need to send all school supplies on the first day. Just pack what your child can comfortably carry in their backpack—feel free to send in a few items each day.

This year, as always, I remind you of our focus on attendance, communication, safety, health, and community.

Attendance: Every day counts! Consistent attendance helps build routines, relationships, and academic success. Let’s work together to ensure our students are present and engaged.
Communication: We believe in open, two-way communication. If you ever have questions, concerns, or ideas, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Our “Contact Us” button on the school website is always available.
Safety: The safety of our students and staff is our top priority. We are committed to maintaining a secure and welcoming environment for all.
Health: We continue to promote healthy habits and practices throughout our school. Please keep your child home if they are vomiting or have fever. Let us know if you need support.
Community: We are stronger together. Let’s continue to build a school culture rooted in respect, inclusion, and shared responsibility.

Please mark your calendars for these important dates:

First Day of School: Thursday, September 4
Meet the Teacher Night: Tuesday, September 17
School Closed: Tuesday, September 23 and Wednesday, September 24 - Rosh Hashanah

We are excited for a year filled with meaningful learning, joyful discovery, and continued growth. Thank you for being an essential part of our school community.

Wishing you a safe, healthy, and inspiring start to the school year!

Sincerely,
Osceola Fishburne
Principal

Our first day of school will be Thursday, September 4, 2025, and we can’t wait to welcome our students back with open arms and bright smiles.
