K8 Staff Memo

WOW — the 2024–2025 school year is coming to a close, and what a journey it has been! I am incredibly proud of the growth and success we've seen this year. Our student progress data is beginning to shift from growth to achievement, and that is a reflection of your hard work and dedication.

The professional learning we've embraced — from Illustrative Math to LETRS — has strengthened our instructional practices, and our ongoing commitment to PLC collaboration is showing real results. Thank you for your continued support, teamwork, and belief in our shared mission.

This final week is packed with celebrations, field trips, reflections, and memory-making moments. Please take time to reflect with your students, cherish the joy of learning, and finish strong.

I am so proud of our Charger Family and truly grateful to be a part of this incredible team. Let's make this last week memorable for our students and one another!

Field Day is coming up on Wednesday, June 12th, and we're excited to celebrate our students with PBIS prize drawings!  This year, we're focusing on prizes that promote active summer fun and family engagement, and we're asking for five prizes per grade level to help make the day extra memorable.
