On the first Friday (sometimes the second Friday) of every month during the school year, the entire 1st through 8th grade student body gathers in the school’s amphitheater at 9:00 am. After pledging allegiance to the flag and singing God Bless America, birthdays and student accomplishments both inside and outside school are acknowledged. Each Assembly is capped-off by a character trait presentation by students at one grade level (e.g. third graders might present a skit on “Friendship”). Parents are welcome to attend.

Parents are invited to meet in the library at 9:00 am for an informal introduction to the PAC (Parent Action Committee), and learn about upcoming events and volunteer opportunities. The PAC spearheads many of the fun school-wide events that build a sense of community on campus and enrich the lives of our students.
