Dear Parents -
We have several newsworthy items that we would like to share with you this week!!!
First of all, the 2nd quarter report cards were distributed to your child today!!!!!
The 2014-2015 school calendar has been approved by the Governing Board and is linked here. Please note that the start date for next school year is August 13. Please plan all of your vacations and camps ahead of time, so you are back prior to August 13!
Beginning Thursday, January 16, a construction project will begin in Phase I of the school. The plans are to add four additional hard-walled classrooms to be used by the middle school students. Three classrooms will be relocated to other areas of the school during the construction. The project is projected to be complete by the time the students return from spring break!
We would like to welcome Christine Yeary to our STEM family. Christine's role will be Communications and Partnerships, Program Manager. Christine comes to us with nearly 20 years of experience working with various corporations and non-profit agencies in the Dayton area. She is married and has three children.
