Remake Leaning Days in April/May

Many family events are coming up in April and May. Painting & Pasta is FULL and we have reached capacity for this event. At this time we cannot accept any more RSVP's.

In addition, the Family Center will be closed on for the next 3 weeks in preparation for Remke Learning Days and will reopen on May 7th.

4th Grade Community Service Project

Our wonderful 4th-grade students are leading a community service project this month to support the Charlotte CARE Center, a local organization dedicated to assisting individuals experiencing homelessness.

Throughout April, we will be collecting essential supplies for the Charlotte CARE Center. They are currently in need of the following items:

  • Baby wipes
  • Small, travel-sized hand sanitizers
  • Bug spray
  • Non-perishable foods (that can be opened without a can opener - e.g., granola bars, pouches of tuna/chicken, fruit cups with easy-open lids, crackers)

A collection box has been placed in the lobby. 
Your support will make a meaningful difference in the lives of those served by the Charlotte CARE Center. Thank you for helping our 4th graders make a positive impact in our community.
