I hope you're doing well today and looking forward to a beautiful weekend. Please see below for a few updates from the school.
Portables are ready to go!
The fire hydrant is in the ground and we are getting closer to occupying the portables. Students will get the chance to begin classes in our new teaching and learning spaces on Monday, May 16th. Construction in the parking lot should be wrapping up this week, with the laying of pavement today to patch the holes. Thank you for your patience through this process and we look forward to having more space in the school and to park.
The portables being ready is deserving enough of its own update for the week. Enjoy the weekend and thank you for your continued support.
