Today, we honored Ms. Amy, our classroom assistant, and Mrs. Hoyle, our 3rd-grade teacher, with the Spirit Stick Award!

Thank you both for the positive impact you make on our school community. We are so grateful to have you on our team!

"Thank you, Mrs. Hoyle, for showing up for your students every day, believing in their potential, and creating a classroom where all students are supported, valued, and encouraged to grow!"

Ms. Amy, you consistently foster your student’s independence, believe in her abilities, and maintain high expectations while always showing care, patience, and respect."

As we wrap up National School Bus Safety Week, we want to thank our drivers and support staff. School buses are an important part of the educational experience. For many students, the school day begins and ends with a ride on a bus. When you include sporting events and extracurricular activities, some students can be on a bus 5-6 times a day.

School Bus safety is also a shared responsibility. To the drivers taking the students to/from school, the aides directing them on/off the bus, the people sharing important bus safety messages, and anyone in between, this appreciation post goes out to all of you.
