We urgently need families to reclaim their lost items.  We have more lost items then ever in our lost and found and no longer have room to keep them. Please see below message about lost and found.   

Lost and Found  
We have many items in the lost and found including lots of winter jackets!. You are welcome to visit the school to see if there are items belonging to your child. PLEASE COME AND LOOK THROUGH OUR LOST AND FOUND, AS WE WILL BE DONATING IT ALL AFTER MAY 1.  Also, to avoid losing items, we recommend labeling all clothing items, especially outer winter wear; this helps us return items to their rightful owners and avoid having to place them in the lost and found. 

Growing Smiles Fundraiser 
From April 30thth until May 18th, 2026, you can place orders online for beautiful hanging baskets and hanging ferns, marigolds, roses, veggies, succulents, herbs, strawberries, planters, AND wave petunias.  

Orders will be available at the school for pick up on Thursday June 4th from approximately 2pm until 4:30pm. 

Help us reach our fundraising goal of $500.00 to put towards playground updates for our school. To do this, we would need to sell a total of 275 plants. Please share this fundraiser with your friends and family. 

Follow the web address below to order your plants to enjoy in your Spring Garden.
