Weekly Principal Message

Hello Zeh Families,

It was a busy week at school! It was great to see so many of you at the picnic last night and also see so many students biking or walking to school this morning. I’m sad that the parade was canceled, but I don’t think any of us wanted to be walking in a Nor’easter!

Yesterday, Mrs. Frutman shared a reminder to complete your Returning Student Information Form in PowerSchool if you haven’t already. We appreciate your help in completing these forms. It is important that we have the most up-to-date information so we can provide your child with the support they need, especially in an emergency. If you have any trouble completing the form or have questions, please reach out. Thank you to everyone who has already completed the information.

Good luck with the storm this weekend, and stay safe!

Mr. Bell
