Wednesday, April 23: Administrative Professionals Day
Let’s show some love to Mrs. Christina and Mrs. Jae in the front office—they’re the heart of our school!
Friday, April 25: Character Trait Ceremony & Parent Parade
Join us at 7:20 AM in the gym as we honor students who’ve shown optimism all year long. This is our fifth and final Character Trait Ceremony. What an incredible year it’s been recognizing students who have gone above and beyond in living out our Gator Values. Teaching and celebrating these values helps our students grow into kind, resilient, and responsible individuals. It also strengthens our school community by creating a shared culture of respect, empathy, and positivity.
Friday, April 25: Home Connection Glow Report
Watch for the final Glow Report! It’s a student reflection activity that highlights your child's glows and grows from the entire school year. Once again, there will be a section for you to share your own glow and grow moment. Your feedback strengthens our school-home connection and helps every child shine. We hope these conversation starters have also helped you and your child have purposeful conversations about academics, behavior, friendships, problem-solving, goal-setting, and personal growth.
Friday, April 25: Gator Gala - Order Here
Do not wait until the day of the school dance to purchase your tickets. This is not a parent drop-off event for PK–4th grade. We will have food trucks available from 6–8 PM. It's going to be a fun-filled evening for the whole family, so come ready to dance with DJ Amare and make memories!

Monday, April 28: Teach Children to Save with Fulton Bank
Our 4th graders are excited to host Fulton Bank as they teach students about financing, saving, budgeting, and smart spending habits. Learning these essential life-ready skills at an early age empowers students to make informed decisions and develop a strong foundation for financial literacy. By introducing these concepts now, we’re helping prepare our students for real-world responsibilities and reinforcing the importance of lifelong learning beyond the classroom.

Friday, May 2: Uplifters Union – Sol House Breakfast & Unity Day
Get your yellow ready! All members of House Sol are invited to a free breakfast in the gym from 7:15–7:50 AM.
