Dear Logan Families,
I hope you have had a great long weekend. We had a fantastic first week back at school, and we’re looking forward to welcoming your kids back to school for week two! On Thursday, we hosted our welcome back assembly. As is our tradition, we greeted the students in the many languages spoken in our community including Arabic, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Russian, Italian, French, German, Spanish, and American Sign Language. After our greeting, I read a book to the students and each staff member introduced themselves to the kids. We concluded our assembly with our annual flag raising ceremony led by two fifth graders.
In this Weekly Update, I’ve included information about:
