We are so incredibly blessed to have each of our students in our lives. Watching them grow, learn, and shine is a gift, and today’s Christmas program was a beautiful reminder of the joy, hope, and love this season brings.
To our wonderful families—thank you for sharing your children with us and for the love and support you pour into our school community. We wish you a Christmas filled with peace, laughter, and special moments together, and a New Year full of health, happiness, and blessings. ❤️
What a magical day at pre-school! Today was Polar Express Day, and our K–4 students climbed aboard in their cozy jammies for a special visit with Santa 🎅✨ They received treat bags and gifts, and the excitement and Christmas spirit were truly priceless!
To make the journey even more meaningful, our students were also blessed with generous gifts from the Evarts Police Department ❤️💙 We are incredibly thankful for their kindness and continued support of our school family.
And for our students in grades K–8—don’t worry! Santa didn’t forget about you 🎄😉 All aboard again tomorrow, because he’ll be back with more goodies and holiday cheer!
Believe. 🎄✨🚂
All students and staff are safe, and school operations are continuing as normal.
We just wanted to share this information to prevent worry if you see emergency activity in the area.

PE Safety Update for grades 4-8: Proper Footwear Required
To keep our students safe during Physical Education, we are adopting a more protective footwear policy.
Students are required to wear tennis shoes or athletic-style shoes while participating in PE. These shoes should have:
✅ Closed toe and heel
✅ Non-slip rubber soles
✅ Secure laces or straps
Students may bring athletic shoes to change into before PE or wear them throughout the day—whatever is most convenient.
Shoes that are not accepted include (but are not limited to):
❌ Slide-on shoes
❌ Hey Dudes
❌ Clogs or Crocs
❌ Sandals
❌ Dress shoes
1. The American Academy of Pediatrics reports that students wearing athletic shoes are up to 60% less likely to suffer lower-body injuries during physical activity.
2. The Journal of Sports Medicine also finds that athletic shoes provide better traction, ankle support, and impact protection, reducing the chance of slips and sprains.
Your cooperation helps us keep PE fun, safe, and injury-free for every student!
