Dear Eagles,

Our school is looking awesome with all the fun Harry Potter decorations throughout our building!  I visited every classroom today to sort students into houses.  Ask your child what house they will be earning points for!  It was fun to see the excitement growing for Literacy Month.  Thanks, PTA!

Picture Day Next Monday, March 9th, is spring picture day.  Flyers will come home later this week with more information.

March Newsletter Here is the newsletter for March.  It will also be posted on our school and PTA websites.  March Newsletter 2020

Link to 5th Grade Maturation Programs

Canyons District’s informational maturation program for fifth-grade students and their parents is coming up in March. Presentations will be conducted by a professional speaker.  All parents are encouraged to attend these free events with their children, and to choose which date best fit their schedules, so that they can continue the discussion in their homes. Fifth-grade teachers have been provided double-sided maturation flyers in English and Spanish to distribute during Parent-Teacher Conferences.
