Principal's Message

Hello Bulldogs!

What a stellar first week of school! Thank you to everyone for being on time and prepared to learn each day. I don’t have many reminders for this week so I’ll keep it short and sweet. Speaking of sweet- make sure to stop by Kelly’s Homemade Ice Cream on Wednesday, August 20 from 4:00 PM-7:00 PM for the first PTA Spirit Night! Looking forward to another amazing week where our bulldogs hit it out of the park! 
Love,

Mrs. Bethany Ledesma
