NAAPID Invitation

NAAPID is the day we celebrate the importance of the role of parents in each child's education.  This year, NAAPID will take place on Monday, February 13. We invite all families to join us.

Enrollment  for the 2023-2024 School Year Now Open

If you’re interested in our Young 5s program for your student, I highly encourage families to enroll now. Space is limited in this program.

Dear Logan Families,

We had a huge turnout, and it was wonderful to see your kids volunteering to support others in the community.
