We are excited to celebrate our first-time Attendance Champions for the week of February 16th–20th!

🏆 Park School: Mrs. Reid’s Kindergarten Class

Congratulations to these amazing students and teachers for showing up, being on time, and making attendance a priority! We are so proud of your commitment to learning.

A big THANK YOU to all of our students and families who are working hard to maintain strong attendance. Remember, great attendance means:
✔️ Being at school every day
✔️ Arriving on time
✔️ Heading straight to class after breakfast

We know that sometimes students take a little too long at breakfast and end up tardy. We’ve been working hard to improve this, and we appreciate everyone’s effort in helping students get to class on time and ready to learn.

Keep up the great work, Roadrunners! Every day counts, and every minute matters!

Kindness doesn’t stop with people! From February 9–27, we will be collecting Pennies for Puppies to help support our local animal shelter. Bring your spare change—pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters… anything helps! Every coin adds up and makes a big difference for animals in need. 🐶🐱

Let’s come together to make our school a place where kindness shines, joy is shared, and everyone feels seen and valued—both in our community and beyond.

To help ensure the safety of all students, families, and staff, we are asking that if your child is a drop off/pickup student, please leave your dogs at home during this time.

While we have not had any incidents involving dogs, we want to be proactive in maintaining a safe environment for everyone. We know that dogs can be very protective of their families and children, and we want to avoid any potential situations where a dog may jump out of a vehicle or become startled during drop-off or pickup.

We appreciate your understanding, cooperation, and consideration as we work together to keep our school community safe.

Thank you for your continued support.
