Thank you to all the families that participated in Dad's walk your kids to school day! We had 91 families participate this morning with role models ranging from grandparents to siblings, to family friends that play a great role in supporting our young scholars. 🐾
Dear Parents, Guardians, and Caregivers, Van Corlaer held a lockdown drill on 9/17 at 10:10am. This drill was conducted so that all members of our school know what to do in case of a fire. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Sincerely,
Mrs. Collins

Good morning Van Families!
August is coming fast and we have been hard at work moving all of the furniture and learning materials from Van to Fulton. Just a reminder: There is a welcome gathering on 8/19 at Fulton. At this time we will provide tours of the building, just remember many classrooms will not be fully set up as it is still many days before the start of school.
There will be a presentation about arrival and dismissal as well as a welcome for new students at this time. we look forward to seeing you on 8/19 from 12-2 pm.
