Upcoming Events

Hello Parents,

I hope all of you are enjoying your weekend! Please read on for important announcements:

1. Caine's Arcade - Tuesday, May 17- Red and white track have put together a fundraiser to help the Menifee Valley Community Cupboard. Students worked hard to design arcade games for the school to enjoy. The cost of each game is $0.01 and all proceeds will be donated. If students are unable to bring in money, they will still be allowed to play the games and participate. This is a wonderful fundraising opportunity!

2. Character Assembly - Wednesday, May 18 - Formal dress required

3. K-5 Talent Show - Friday, May 20 - Students K-5 will be attending the elementary talent show. Please have your child wear their white or tan polo shirts (to help with the heat). We encourage that your child wear sunscreen, bring a bottled water, and hats will be permitted on that day.

I will send another email this week in regards to our final week of school. We're almost there! Have a wonderful day.
