Important Safety Update

Good morning, Pirate Community! We just wanted to reach out to let you know our students did a really good job during the alarms this morning. We had administration, teachers, and counselors checking with your children today during lunches. There were a few struggling with it. We ask that you check on them later today as well. Thank you for helping us remain calm and trusting us to protect your children. Stay safe, Pirates!
