Musical: Thank you, Mrs. Dela Paz and the 2nd/3rd grade students for a wonderful performance last Friday evening! Your hard work was shown, and you all did a great job!
Memorial Day: We will be closed on Monday, Mary 26, for Memorial Day. We want to wish everyone a safe and fun holiday weekend.
School Picnic: Our annual school picnic will take place on Wednesday, May 28, at the War Memorial Park (State Farm Pavilion) in Martinsburg. Parents will drop off students at the pavilion between 7:45 and 8:00 am. Parents will pick up students from the pavilion at noon. Home & School will provide a lunch for the students and staff. Parents are welcome to stay to help and enjoy some fun outside play time. We will not be providing Before or Aftercare on this day.
8th Grade Graduation: Our 8th grade graduation will take place on Thursday, May 29, at 6 pm at the Martinsburg SDA Church. All students are required to attend as they will be performing a song for the ceremony.
Last Day of School: Our last day of school is just around the corner! On Friday, May 30, parents are asked to stay for the awards in their child’s classroom, followed by awards presented in the gym. School will officially be over, and summer will officially begin around 10 am!
Hold Your Seat: It is once again that time of year to make sure that your child has a spot for the next school year. Please return the form and payment of $250 to be sure your child has a seat. Currently our 6th-8th grade class has a waiting list. If you have not turned in your “Hold Your Seat” fee and form, please let us know your plans so we can release seats if needed. Only $175 will be credited toward the first month’s tuition.
Lunch Orders: Please remember to put only one child’s name on each lunch order. Lunch orders are sent home with every child on Fridays.
Absences: Please remember that if your child is sick or has an excusable absence, that a note or email needs to be sent to Kim Harris at kimharris@go2rks.com.
Hope Scholarship: Students currently participating in the program must submit their Continued Participation Confirmation (CPC) in the Hope Scholarship Portal by June 15, 2025. Late CPCs will not be accepted.
