We had an incredible week celebrating Grandparents' Day with a series of special lunches at Wright Elementary! It was truly heartwarming to see students, grandparents, and family members coming together, sharing stories, and making lasting memories. The smiles were infectious, from the students to the staff who worked hard to make the school a welcoming place for all our visitors. This week was filled with joy and meaningful connections!

Our future Rockets are joining in with SCHS on the Homecoming fun next week!
Here are our daily themes:
Monday- PJ day
Tuesday- JETS DAY- Wear green and White
Wednesday- Camo day
Thursday- Super Hero day
Friday- SCHS DAY- Wear Navy and Gold!

We look forward to seeing our Jets tomorrow for High Attendance day!
