Dear Almond Families,
What a remarkable first day at Almond School! The excitement was palpable as students found their ways to their classrooms, looked for their seats, met their teachers for the year and reunited with friends. Teachers greeted their students with excellence and exuberance. The multi was abuzz with parents learning about volunteer opportunities and programs to extend learning.
I would like to offer my gratitude to the Almond PTA who organized the coffee and all the community partners for sharing the ways you enhance the Almond experience. A special thank you also to our teachers, office and custodial staff who are amazing at handling countless details. Finally, this day would not have been the success it was without the help of our volunteers that supported our lunch hour. As a result of this unified effort, children at Almond experienced great success throughout the day.
