SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT MEMO

Everything You Want to Know

Week of May 23, 2022

 

FROM THE PRINCIPAL: 

Friday was the perfect way to show our community spirit - From running many miles in the morning, transitioning to watching all the talent of our students (faculty and staff too!) and wrapping up the day with a community BBQ for a couple hundred of our friends - my heart was so full of joy to have our community back together again! A tremendous THANK YOU goes out to our Jogathon Chair, Erin McClaskey, our community BBQ team of Molly O’Neill, Holly Brewer, Kathryn Thomason, Monika Lussier, Virginia Adatto, Ashley Reese, Nora Jensen and Megan King and all parent volunteers for helping make such a memorable day for our community. Jogathon packets and collected money is due this Friday, May 27, and we should have some fundraising results at the end of the month. Thanks for your support!

Now that we are in the home stretch of the school year, don’t forget to turn in your registration papers for the 2022-23 school year by this Friday’s deadline. Individual tuition letters went home with students and FACTS tuition schedules will be “finalized” this Friday. The registration papers that need to be returned can all be found on your FACTS Family Portal under Resource Documents: Enrollment Contract, Digital Citizenship Plan, Playground Duty Sign Up, After School Pick Up Plan, and Acknowledgement of the Student/Parent Handbook & Code of Conduct.
