A NOTE FROM THE PRINCIPAL:

We have just completed a very successful school year. Big THANKS to everyone in the Peaceful Kingdom. We truly have a special school!

Just because the regular school year has come to a close does not mean that learning should come to a close. Keep the kids engaged in as many structured activities as possible this Summer. The experiences will reap great benefits when school starts again in August. And, of course, be sure to have the kids pick up a book or two along the way. As we always say "Reading is Knowledge...Knowledge is POWER!!!

Don't forget that the first day of school will be Tuesday, August 26,
2008.  Students will be in session for 2 1/2 hours that day.  There
will be no heat schedule during the 2008-2009 school year.  Have a
wonderful summer!
