Dear Parents and Families,
We are SO excited to invite all of you to participate in our Next Level Program!
This program will help with continuing to build our outdoor learning area that will include picnic tables and umbrellas for our staff, students, and parents to be able to use during various times of the day. As a campus, we have worked hard to build this outdoor learning area to give staff and students the opportunity to make their learning mobile for the purpose of enjoying the beautiful outdoors. It will also give us the opportunity to allow more parents to campus during lunch times with their students to reward positive behavior, as well as give parents other opportunities to eat lunch with their students monthly.
