WELCOME TO 1ST GRADE

First grade marks an incredible time of growth for children, and we're thrilled to have your child join us on this exciting journey!

We believe in the power of collaboration between home and school. With open communication and your active involvement, we'll work hand-in-hand to nurture your child's development and lay the groundwork for a lifetime of learning. We're so excited to embark on this adventure with you and your child! Take a peek at the information below, and if you have any questions, our friendly office staff are here to help.
