Good morning Charger Nation!
Happy Saturday!
I hope everyone is having a nice break and a great holiday season so far!
As a reminder, school re-opens this Thursday, January 2, 2025. We are hitting the ground running right away with our multilingual students beginning their ACCESS testing. This crew of kids has been working so hard with our amazing ML staff, and we know they’re going to knock it out of the park. A huge shoutout to Ms. Rivera, Ms. Licciardi, Ms. Picariello, Mrs. Canavan, and Mrs. George for all of their hard work supporting the growth of our multilingual learners. These ladies are truly rock stars!
Below are a few announcements and upcoming dates for your review.
I wish you all a very safe and happy New Year. We look forward to welcoming our Chargers back to school on Thursday.
Take care!
