Given our new year and the challenges it poses, our procedure for drop off and pick up has changed.  We will begin the morning procedure at 7:25 AM and parents are encouraged to take advantage of the early opportunity to avoid the 7:40 rush and possible tardies.  Read more for an explanation and diagram about the procedure.

Some students from our high school have started our very first editorial club! The editorial club will be producing new issues of their magazine: Blue Sails throughout the year. This magazine will showcase written works (such as articles or poetry), artwork, photos, or other creative projects submitted by students from all grades.

The Spanish Club will meet virtually every Wednesday, from 4:15 to 4:45 P.M. We play games, listen to music, and have cooking demonstrations! All are welcome to join no matter your level of Spanish!
