Principal's Message

Dear Zeh Families,

Thank you to everyone who has signed up for a conference next week. If you haven’t already done so and would like to, please email your child’s teacher directly, as the signup links have now closed. A reminder that due to conferences, Tuesday and Thursday will have early releases, and dismissal will be at 11:40. We look forward to connecting with our families!

Thank you to everyone who donated to the Food Drive this week. This is by far the most donations we have ever received, and I know the food pantry and the families they support will be grateful.

I’m glad the weather cleared up, and it looks like it should be a nice evening for those who are trick-or-treating. I hope everyone has a fun and safe weekend! Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Mr. Bell
