A note from Mrs. Cureton:
We have had a great first week back from Thanksgiving break! We now have 10 more days of learning until our Winter break. Parents, please help us make a greater impact on your student's learning these next 10 days by getting them to school on time. Our school day begins at 7:50am and ends at 3:10pm, daily.
Holiday Program
Our Winter Singalong is quickly approaching! Please join us Thursday, December 15th @5:30pm for the Clarkston Winter Singalong. Each grade level will be showcased during this program, under the direction of our fabulous music teacher, Ms. Lynch. This program will take place in the cafe. Cookies and hot chocolate will be served at the event!
Winter Parties
We are excited to celebrate the holiday season with our students! Each grade level will have a designated day/time for their Winter Party. Please see the image below for more details. Parents/guardians are invited to join us at the time of your student's grade level party. Visitors are required to check in at the front office with a valid form of ID.
Early Release
We will release students early, at 12:30pm, on Friday, December 16th. Students must be picked up at 12:30pm due to teacher professional learning in the afternoon. Please ensure that you have made plans for your student's dismissal on this day, if plans are different than normal. Boys and Girls Club will not be available on this day-please make sure you have an alternate dismissal plan if your student attends Boys and Girls Club.
Have a great weekend!
-Sarah Cureton, Principal
