A Message from Principal Mason
Greetings Dragon Families!

Congratulations to our Dragon basketball teams on clean sweeps this season. Both teams went undefeated and provided fans with great entertainment. Shoutouts to Coach Loisel and Coach Chan, Team Manager Cathy Gregory and Timekeeper Jack Mason. Ardie even made an appearance at the final games–it was an epic season–thanks everyone!

Dragons enjoyed a great deal of excitement & extended learning this month with the Lunar New Year assembly, 1st/2nd grade naturalist assemblies, 4th grade ancient artifacts presentations, LHS assemblies and the ever popular, Mr. Froggy! Dragons engaged in classroom lessons for Black History Month and attended PBIS Assemblies! Thanks to our awesome PTA for an engaging science night with the Art of Problem Solving. Shoutout to STEM Chair Aarthi Aravinth!

With Ramadan beginning this weekend, students who are fasting during the month are invited to join us during their lunch time in room 22 for crafts and games. All are welcome! Dragons will also will wrap up the month with Lunchtime Glow Parties on March 28th. All students are invited to participate in this Dragon Dash reward earned last fall.
