Happy Holidays to all who celebrate. Have a restful, joyous break.

Join us for the week of December 16 for SA’s Winter Spirit Week!

There is No School for Wednesday, November 27 – November 29 for Thanksgiving Break.

Thanksgiving originated from the Native American philosophy of giving without expecting anything in return. The Wampanoag tribe provided food and taught the colonists how to hunt and farm. Now the day is known as a National Day of Mourning for Native American people. We hold them and their tradition in our hearts on this day.

At SA, we honor tradition by being thankful. We are thankful for our amazing teachers and staff, they are so dedicated to their students and their craft. We are thankful for our families who have such amazing children. We are thankful for our school. Our school is a safe space where students can express their individuality. We are thankful for our planet. We will try to protect it.

There is No School for Students on Monday, November 25 and Tuesday, November 26 because of Parent Teacher Conferences.

Teachers will be working on Monday and Tuesday and are looking forward to discussing your child’s growth during parent teacher conferences. Your student(s) brought home a report card in their Friday Folder today. Please check it out and review in advance of conferences next week.

Thursday, November 7 is an early release day. There is no afterschool and there is no preschool. Pickup is at 11:30am. Lunch will be available.

On early dismissal days, we follow our regular dismissal procedures. Students who get picked up by car are dismissed to the back loop first. Then, bus students are dismissed, followed by walkers at the bell. Walkers meet up with their pick-up person on the blacktop.
