From the Elementary Principal

Dear Elementary Parents,

We wanted to extend our heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you for making our first-ever Fairy Tale Literacy Night an enchanting success! Your presence and active participation truly made the evening magical.

A hearty congratulations goes out to our amazing 3rd-grade class for achieving an outstanding 100% attendance rate and winning the well-deserved ice cream party! Your dedication to your children’s education is truly commendable.

The event was a fantastic triumph, with teachers, parents, and students coming together to celebrate the joy of reading and storytelling. Witnessing these heartwarming interactions and shared moments was truly special.

We hope that you and your family had a fantastic time, indulging in the literary wonderland and enjoying the fairy tale-themed festivities. Your support means the world to us, and we eagerly anticipate hosting more exciting events in the future.

A special shout-out goes to our dedicated teachers who generously donated cookies and snacks, adding to the evening’s delight. We couldn’t have done it without your support and commitment. Also, a big thank you to our amazing Elementary teachers for their unwavering support and for organizing this wonderful event.

Once again, thank you for being a part of our Fairy Tale Literacy Night adventure. May the magic of books continue to enchant your lives, and may you be blessed with many more literary journeys together.

Warmest regards,

Richie Morris 

Elementary Principal
