Dear Parents/Guardians:

There is an all call going out tonight.  Here is what the message contains:

Today we had a shelter in place.  This drill went very successfully.  During this type of drill the staff shuts the blinds, closes the windows and locks their classroom door, and then teaching resumes as normal. This is one of the many emergency drills every school has to perform during the school year.  Please speak with your children about the activity.  

Also all casting for our musical Shrek is closed, thank you for all the interest in the musical. 


I hope you all have a safe and Happy Thanksgiving! Sincerely, Sean Dunphy Principal ~ SAES
