Dear Parents,
Thank you to everyone who attended Back to School Night! Your children are adjusting well to the expectations and routines of first grade. It is a joy to see them learn every day.
There will be no school on Monday, September 4th in observance of Labor Day.
Hope Lutheran School is celebrating 40 years of ministry on Saturday, September 9 from 4-7 pm. The school choirs and band will perform at the celebration. Kindergarten-2nd grade students should meet their teachers at the picnic tables at 4:45 pm. 3rd-8th grade students should meet their teachers in the FLC commons at 4:45 pm.
