As summer draws to an end and the leaves begin to change color, it’s time to start thinking about back to school. For students, teachers, and parents alike, the start of a new school year is a time of excitement, anticipation, and maybe even a little bit of nervousness. The 2024-2025 school year is just around the corner, and we can’t wait to see what it has in store for us.
One of the things that makes the start of a new school year so special is the opportunity to learn new things. Whether you’re a student starting kindergarten for the first time or a high school senior preparing for college, there’s always something new to learn. This year, we’re excited to offer a variety of new courses and programs, including a new robotics club, a coding camp, and a Spanish language immersion program.
Of course, no school year would be complete without extracurricular activities. From sports to music to drama, there’s something for everyone at our school. We encourage all students to get involved in at least one extracurricular activity, as they’re a great way to make new friends, learn new skills, and have some fun. We’re looking forward to a great year of learning, growing, and making memories.
