Hi Katie,

What a great week on campus last week! I want to start by thanking the students, parents, and teachers for the incredibly warm welcome to the community. I enjoyed meeting everyone and thank you to those who were able to attend the Meet and Greets on Wednesday. If you were unable to attend but are interested in scheduling a time with me, please reach out to the front office.

Our students returned from Spring Break and jumped right back into their daily routines! A big congrats to our students who completed Az Sci and AASA Writing this week.

We have many things coming up before the end of the school year. Please read below for an update!

Warmly,

Katie Cox
