Happy Summer Break, Powell Families!

 

We hope your summer is filled with sunshine, laughter, and lots of memory-making! As you continue to soak up this well-deserved break, we wanted to share a few fun and important updates with you:

Classroom Teacher Assignments

Our incredible teachers are enjoying some much-needed rest and relaxation, but once they return, they’ll be reaching out with friendly phone calls to introduce themselves as your child’s teacher for the upcoming year!

As a reminder, while we do not accept specific teacher requests, we are committed to placing every student in a nurturing and engaging learning environment that best supports their individual needs and helps our classrooms stay balanced and thriving.
