It was another wonderful week of learning and enrichment. Students are more familiar with the routines and procedures of their classrooms as well as the building.

Last week was a wonderful week as we were able to host our Curriculum Night for the Lower School and meet many families. We are looking forward to meeting Upper School families this week and share details about the wonderful things students will be learning about and participating in this school year.

Beginning Monday, October 3rd, you will have the opportunity to schedule Parent-Teacher Conferences online. Each conference is 10 or 20 minutes long. During the scheduled conference, if your child is in grade 6, 7, or 8, you will meet with your child’s Math/Science teacher(s) for 10 minutes and then for 10 minutes with your child’s ELA/Social Studies teacher(s). All conferences this year will be VIRTUAL.
