Principal’s Message: Enjoy your Summer!

Dear Families,

We want to extend our deepest gratitude to each and every one of you. Thank you for making the 2025–2026 school year an absolutely incredible journey! From the first day of school to our final end-of-year celebrations, we watched our students grow, learn, and achieve amazing things.

Congratulations to the Class of 2026! You will be missed and we know you'll be successful in high school.

For our new 7th and 8th grade students, please take this summer to rest, recharge, and make wonderful memories with your loved ones. Read some great books, play outside, and enjoy the sunshine.

Wishing you all a safe, happy, and healthy summer break!

Warmly,
Mrs. Antuna, Principal
