Have a wonderful weekend Bluejays!!

💙🐦 What a GREAT first two days! 🐦💙 We are so thankful for our Bluejay families and the wonderful start we’ve had to the new school year! It has been so good to see our students back in the building, learning, laughing, and settling into their routines. Beginning tomorrow, we will return to our regular safety protocols for morning drop-off. Students should be dropped off through the car line or walked to the front entrance beginning at 7:15am. Staff members will be there to greet students and will gladly walk younger students to their classrooms if they need a little extra help. 💙 We know you are trusting us each day with your most precious possessions, and we do not take that responsibility lightly. These procedures help us keep our building safe and ensure every student is cared for from the moment they arrive. Thank you for your patience, cooperation, and continued trust in our staff. We appreciate our Bluejay families and are looking forward to a wonderful year! 🐦💙
