We regret to inform you that, due to offshore wind and wave conditions, Dolphin Fleet has canceled our whale watch trip scheduled for Monday, June 8. Out of an abundance of caution and with student safety as our top priority, the trip will not take place.
Students should report to school on Monday and follow their regular school-day schedule.
We are exploring the possibility of rescheduling the trip before the end of the school year and will share an update with families if an alternative date becomes available.
Thank you for your understanding and flexibility.

Big shoutout to three amazing students, ZJ, Brandon and Daequan , who stayed after school today to help clean up winter debris from the steps at St. Peter’s Church! It was a great chance to get outside, work together, and take pride in caring for the shared spaces in our community.
We even had a surprise assist from the Department of Public Works, who made a special stop to pick up our bags and bring them to the dump—true teamwork in action!
So proud of these students along with Mrs Van Cleave for stepping up and making a difference 💙
