Exciting news!


Starting Friday, October 4, we will host 9 family lunches before winter break. Our top priority is the safety and enjoyment of all our students and families. Join us as we create a warm and welcoming space for everyone to savor these special moments together!


  • Each Friday, there will be openings for 18 students per grade level to have 1-2 visitors.

  • Visitors will be limited to 1-2 per student. This will allow family visitors to sit in a separate section where they can visit with their student.

  • Guests can register for 2 lunches before winter break.

  • To reserve a place, one family member will complete this form, state his/her name as well as the name of the second guest lunching with the student(s).

  • Please note the date of your reservation. While we try to send emails to remind you, it is not always possible.

Benji from 2B!



Benji is a great example of integrity in our class! He is more of a quiet leader, but I consistently notice how he is leading with his good choices. He knows the time to be silly verses a time to get work done, and I know that I can trust him. I am proud of how he chooses doing the RIGHT thing, even when it's tempting not to. Great job, Benji!

Timothy from 2A!

Timothy is a friend that consistently shows integrity at our school.  He follows instructions in the classroom quickly and quietly, and is a fabulous role model for hallway expectations when walking around the school.  We are so glad to have Timothy as a part of our 2A family!
