🎉 Huge shoutout to our incredible 6th graders! 🎉 Today, our 6th grade class achieved 100% PERFECT ATTENDANCE! 🏫✨ Every single student showed up ready to learn, and make today awesome. We are so proud of their commitment and effort. Let’s keep this incredible momentum going! 💪

🚀 Welcome Back, Rockets! 🚀 The big day is finally here! We are over the moon to welcome our students and Staffulty back into the building tomorrow morning and officially kick off our journey in our brand-new school! To help drop-off and pick-up go as smoothly as possible, please take a quick look at these arrival and dismissal reminders: Parent Drop-Off (Morning): No changes here! Drop-off remains the same—use the first turn directly in front of the academy building. We ask you not to drop off students in front of the school building between the times of 7:30-8:00am as our buses will begin rolling in. Parent Pick-Up (Afternoon): With our new parking lot layout, pick-up will run a little differently. Parents will park in the parking lot and remain parked until all buses have dismissed. As soon as the buses depart, you’ll be free to drive forward. 📍 Check out the diagram below for a clear visual! Thank you for your patience as we all adjust to our new space. We can't wait to see those smiling faces bright and early tomorrow! Let's make it an amazing school year! ✨
