🧡✨ Unity Day is here! ✨🧡
Let’s stand together for kindness, acceptance, and inclusion. Students are encouraged to wear orange to show that we are united against bullying and for building a positive school community. 🌟
We can’t wait to see a wave of orange in our halls!

Today our students joined millions across the nation for The Great American ShakeOut!
They practiced how to Drop, Cover, and Hold On to stay safe during an earthquake drill. Safety is always a top priority, and our students did an awesome job following directions and taking the drill seriously.
Way to go, Gators, for being prepared and ready for anything!








Today is Report Card Day!
Report cards are going home with students, giving families a chance to see all the hard work and growth from the first part of the school year.
Be sure to check those backpacks tonight!


Congratulations to Ms. Hodge for receiving the Gritty Gator from Ms. Buras!

October is National Principals Month — and we’re swinging into it with a big THANK YOU to our amazing principal, Dr. Burkett!
We love the way she leads with caring and compassion while encouraging every student and staff member to be and do their very best. Whether she’s cheering us on, supporting our goals, or hopping on the swings with the kids, she makes learning and leading so much fun!
Dr. Burkett, thank you for helping our school soar to new heights. You truly make a difference every single day to our Gator family!

Red Ribbon Week
We’re celebrating making healthy choices and living drug-free lives. To make it extra fun, we’ll have special dress-up days all week long! Each theme is a chance to show school spirit while reminding us that our future is bright when we choose to be safe, healthy, and drug free.

Let’s celebrate in style—students are invited to dress up in their best 1950s outfits! Think poodle skirts, leather jackets, and rolled-up jeans.
We can’t wait to see all the fabulous 50s looks as we celebrate 50 amazing days of learning together!

Our 2nd grade Gators brought history to life in their Johnny Appleseed play! Their hard work, big smiles, and amazing performances made the show a huge success. We’re so proud of our little storytellers!






Congratulations to our September students of the month!
