You should have received a notification from Skyward today with information about your child's 2025-26 teacher. If you did not receive a notification, please call the school office at 225-4210, and Ms. Thill, our building secretary, will assist you.
If you have a student in fifth grade and you did not receive a teacher notification from Skyward, your child's teacher will be announced early next week. Due to Mr. Paulsen's retirement announcement this month, we are in the process of hiring a new 5th-grade teacher. We will be finishing interviews on Monday and expect to have the new 5th-grade teacher hired and ready to meet students at the Open House on Wednesday!
We look forward to the year ahead and hope to see you at our Open House on August 27th, 2025, from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. It's going to be an amazing year!
