Happy Friday! Parents and Guardians,
As we approach the end of the year, students are expected follow the school uniform policy each day. At this time, we no longer have uniforms available for loan,
so we kindly ask for your support in ensuring that your child arrives to school dressed appropriately.
Your cooperation helps our staff maintain a focused and consistent learning environment for all students. If you have any questions or need clarification about the uniform requirements, please contact the Parent Liaisons or Main Office.
Thank you for your continued support.
