Hi, Wolf Pack! This newsletter will go out approximately every other Wednesday. It is written primarily by parent SAPSA volunteers, and provides information about different things that are going on at school!
We're so happy to welcome back students, and to welcome so many wonderful new students to our school! We're really glad you're here.
We hope your kiddos had a good first day (and didn't melt!), and we're excited to be a part of this wonderful community together this year.
Thanks to everyone who came out in the heat to 'chalk the walk' with encouraging messages ahead of the first day of school!
