What's Happening Around the SWAMP!

And just like that, the break has begun!

Today marked the first day of winter break for our students, bringing to a close the incredible first half of the school year. It has been an amazing first semester filled with growth, discovery, and so many memorable moments.

Thank you for sharing your children with us these past few months. We hope your holiday season is as bright and joyful as the students who made our classrooms this semester.

Reminder hats are not to be worn indoors unless for religious reasons. We have been seeing a lot of baseball caps. Please leave these for the outdoors.
ID Badges are a part of the dress code, and consequences for repeated printing and not wearing badges will be given.
NO SLIDES of any type are to be worn.
Shorts: at this time, we are asking for mid-thigh; many girls differ in height.
