Our most recent ABCD Award Winner is our K4 Teacher - Mrs. Mehaffey. Her nomination said: Mitzi Mehaffey has gone above and beyond each and every year since the school opened in 2008. Faithful to car 🚙 duty each afternoon to call names in all kinds of weather keeping each child safe, and she does it with a smile on her face. Mrs. "Haffey" teaches our youngest GATORS 🐊 how to be great gators in all areas academic, social, and emotional and encourages each one to be the best they can be. She is famous for meeting children where they are and moving them forward no matter what! 💙

Happy SRO Day! A huge shout out of appreciation to Officer Ruiz for the way he takes care of us! Give him some thanks below! 👮🏽♂️
Our staff presented the workers of our new staff entrance with some Valentines goodies - all spearheaded by Miss Bessie! ❤️
‼️Don't forget‼️
Wednesday, February 11, is a scheduled early release day for students. Staff will be in training the rest of the school day. There will be no Wolf Pack, ACA Afterschool or K4/PCD classes. We will dismiss at 11:30.
They are making great progress on our teacher entrance! Earlier we shared that there would be a time in the construction process that we would need to close the sidewalk in the bus loop. We have reached that phase! Starting this Wednesday, February 11th, the sidewalk will be closed to all walkers. Please do not attempt to walk your child to school until we receive word that it is safe to resume this practice. Walkers should be car riders through the front car line while the sidewalk is closed. Please make sure you have car tags for anyone that will be picking up your child. If you do not have them, please bring in a picture ID today to get some from the front office. The sidewalk closure will NOT affect our bus riders. All bus routes will continue as usual. Thank you for your patience and understanding. 🚧
When you drop everything and run outside to see the snowflakes!! ❄️
