Dear Charlemagne Families

As we approach the end of the school year, it's clear that the hard work, dedication, and resilience of our students, staff, and families is truly bearing fruit. We are incredibly proud of our students—not just for their academic achievements, but for the growth they've shown as kind, curious, and capable young people. Each step forward they take is a testament to the strong, supportive community we are building together.

Bon weekend!

Walk and Roll

Walk and Roll to School!

Walk and Roll to school day is WednesdayMay 7th. If you are able to walk, bike, or get to school some way other than a car, please do! Be sure to give yourself plenty of time to make it to school on time. If you live too far from school consider meeting up with friends at an agreed upon location and walking to school from that point with your parents/caregivers. When you arrive at school, stop by the tables at the front of the school for stickers, pencils and raffle tickets. This year the grand prize winner will win a scooter. Other prizes include a Stanley water bottle and neon green reflective shoe laces! The event begins at 8:00 AM and wraps up around 8:20 so everyone can get to class on time.
