Get ready to dive into the world of books while supporting our school!
We’re launching a Read-a-Thon to promote literacy and raise funds for essential school projects.
Here’s how your family can get involved:
1. Register your reader before March 3rd by scanning the QR code or using the take home sheet from your child’s teacher.
2. Help us promote the Read-a-Thon! Use newsletters, social media, and local businesses to let everyone know. The more voices, the more support we can gather!
3. Join us in this exciting adventure including reading our One School - One Book together as a family! Together, we can foster a love for reading and support our school’s needs.
Let’s make this Read-a-Thon a success!
Happy Reading!

More pictures from our 100th day of school!
Yesterday was the 100th day of school! It was nearly impossible to recognize our kindergarteners- they've certainly grown so much!
Today was House meeting day! Students gathered with their house members to find out who the House Heroes were for the first half of the year. House Heroes are the top three point earners from each class. These students will be going on a trip to the Hyatt next week to go swimming. Students also discussed what it takes to become a House Hero and how to earn points. Since today was Valentine’s Day, they participated in some fun Valentine-themed activities as well. ❤️ 🧡 💛 💚 💙 💜
Don't forget that tomorrow, February 13th, is Hippogriff's Day of Friendship! Students are encouraged to wear blue and will not have to be in uniform if participating. 💙
