Fall break and Upcoming events: https://5il.co/2ybbh Wishing everyone a safe and fun fall break. Please check the above calendar for important upcoming events.

It was a great week. FCA had their first event. Cross Country is working hard, setting records and working as a team to encourage each other. We are doing better each day with carline. Students are completely ready to go when the car stops. Remember to form a single file line at the cones close to the gate. It's 2 lines until then. This past week our new PTO board met. They planned events and are planning ways to have more parents involved at school. It's a great day to be an Aggie.

Parents, I wanted to clarify our Pie with the Principal date. It will be held Oct. 24 at 5:30. I had originally planned the event for Sept. but we had a date conflict and needed to reschedule. I look forward to seeing you in October. If you have any concerns about our curriculum or your child's progress, please feel free to call.

If your child is not mastering a certain skill or subject, Give it time. We stress to our students, never underestimate the Power of Yet! You haven't scored a goal, yet. You haven't reached your math goal, yet. You haven't won the Stem competition, yet! Please let your child know just because they haven't ......... it doesn't mean they won't. Keep working!!
