As we wind down from a holiday weekend that marks the unofficial start of summer, it’s a good time to reflect on all that our students have accomplished through another pandemic year. Your children are incredibly bright and resilient, and their energy and inquisitiveness inspire us every day. 

We are grateful for the return of end-of-the-year events, and we look forward to celebrating these milestones with you. Be sure to stay connected with your school site community for the latest schedule of such activities. I hope you enjoyed a restful and reflective weekend with family and friends. We look forward to seeing students when classes resume tomorrow, Tuesday, May 31. 

Here are this week’s updates and reminders.
