We are so excited to meet all of our new families!
The following is some basic information about the upcoming school year. As always, feel free to call the office at 330-676-8300 with any questions. The office will re-open on August 1.
This year we will be having a Kindergarten Kick-off. The kick-off will be on August 7 and 8 from 9:00 am to 11:00 am and is mandatory. It will allow our teachers to get to know the children in a fun and creative environment in addition to helping students start adjusting to more structured time in the classroom when school begins. We ask that you not bring any siblings.
