Read Across America on March 4
March 4 is National Read Across America Day, a day to celebrate one of our favorite activities! The day was established by the National Education Association in 1998 to help get kids excited about reading. We have many special guest readers joining us that day including local school administrators, Maritime Aquarium staff, Police Officers, and families. If you or a community member are interested in reading to a class, please reach out to your child's teacher.

Help Us Promote Safety at School
We will be adding some new signs to our main entry and side doors. We know it is always courteous to hold the door for a person behind you, but we are asking that you support our safety protocols and not hold the door for other visitors to enter when you are entering or exiting the building. All visitors should report to the Security Desk or Main Office to check in. If the Security Officer is away from her desk, please report to the Main Office. Thank you for your continued support.
Important Reminders About Arrival and Dismissal Procedures
Please help us in ensuring the safety of our students at arrival and dismissal, especially in our traffic circle and parking lot.
- Children should only exit a vehicle on the right side closest to the curb in the traffic circle
- Children should never be dismissed to a location that requires them to cross the parking lot or lanes of traffic
- Vehicles cannot idle and must move with traffic
- Drivers cannot exit cars in the drop off circle or driveway
- If you need to exit your car, park in a space
- Do not pass cars that are releasing children
- Watch your speed
- Do not park or idle in areas that are not parking spaces
