You are invited to participate in our Family Literacy Night on January 30th. Please see flyer for more information. It's sure to be a great time!

Do you have a young one entering kindergarten next year? Learn what to expect.
A team of kindergarten teachers, an enrollment expert, and a representative from the Exceptional Student Education will share valuable information about what families can expect during this milestone year. If you have questions, they have answers!

Happy New Year🎊
School resumes for all students on Tuesday, January 7, 2025.
We look forward to seeing our students back on campus.

REMINDER | There is no school for students December 23 - January 6 during the Winter Break. Wishing all of our families Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year! ❄️ 🎆

Can you believe there are only 4 more days left until winter break? We know the holidays can be stressful for students and families, which is why we wanted to remind you that all Duval County families have access to a free online counseling and therapy program and physical health appointments for their DCPS students from home through our partnership with Hazel Health. This service is 100% confidential and at no cost to families.
Should a child need to talk to a therapist or feel ill over winter break, they can be seen by a Hazel licensed therapist pediatrician from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Learn more and sign up here in less than 5 minutes! You can also use this guide for referring your student to teletherapy.
Thank you and have a great and healthy holiday season.

📢 REMINDER | Tomorrow, December 18, is an early release day. Students will be dismissed at 12:50 pm.
⏰ Please make arrangements for or with your children.
If you have any questions, please contact the school directly. ☎️

Good morning parents and guardians. We are gearing up to take our winter assessments. These assessments are very important to your child's academic growth and progress. Please make it a priority to ensure that your child is in school every day. It is even more important that they are here on assessment day. Below you will see the days that each assessment will be administered. Also, it is important that they have a good night's sleep prior to taking their test. Let's make this a great testing experience for all! We look forward to seeing your child every day on time during the testing window! Thank you for your partnership in helping us achieve our goal.

Greeting parents and guardians. We hope that you had an awesome Thanksgiving holiday. We are excited to start the month of December off with good cheer. As you can see, we have a holiday calendar that will carry us through the next 19 days of school until Winter break. Students are free to participate. This is completely optional. Just have fun with it!

REMINDER | There is no school for students November 27 - 29 during the Thanksgiving Break. We wish all of our families who celebrate a Happy Thanksgiving! 🍁
