Beginning Wednesday students should be back into full uniforms. Please remember to wear white-with-white and black-with-black tops and bottoms. If you need a new uniform the super awesome front desk staff can help set you up.

Our A+ After School Program will be back into full swing beginning Tuesday the 4th! Plan on students just getting used to the program for the first week. We will start wearing uniforms by Thursday of Friday. If you need to drop off snacks or uniforms you may do so as of Tuesday.

We will be conducting a women’s self defense seminar this Sunday, July 29, beginning at 6:30 pm.

This is a great opportunity for women and girls age 14 and up to learn some practical skills for defending themselves along with behaviors and strategies to help avoid becoming a target. This is great for anyone heading to high school or college, as well as adults who just want to gain practical skills and confidence.

There is no fee for the seminar, but instead we will be accepting donations to support Blessings in a Backpack. If you or any friends or family would like to attend, please respond by Friday so we can get an accurate headcount.

Thanks — we hope to see you there!
