March will be our Month of Reading because one day simply is not enough to celebrate books.
On March 25 we will host a Mystery Reader event and invite family members & friends to surprise our students by reading a short children’s book in their classroom.
Here is the twist. The reader stays a mystery until the very end. Teachers will share three clues before the visit and students will try to guess who the mystery reader might be.
Event Times

We look forward to celebrating reading together.
During the month of February, our school community came together to celebrate Black History Month through meaningful learning activities and student-led projects.
From February 23rd to February 27th, students and staff participated in a spirited Black History Month Spirit Week, celebrating culture, history, and the achievements of African Americans. Throughout the week, students also worked diligently on their Black History Month Museum projects, researching influential historical figures and important moments in history. These projects allowed students to explore history creatively while developing their research and presentation skills.
The celebration culminated with our Black History Month Programs held on Friday, February 27, 2026, at St. Martin’s Catholic Church (1908 North Capitol St NW). Families and staff joined us to watch students present performances, share their learning, and honor the contributions of Black leaders, innovators, and trailblazers.
Program Schedule:
-
PreK – 1st Grade: 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM
-
2nd – 5th Grade: 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM
We are incredibly proud of our students for their hard work and thoughtful presentations. Events like these help build a deeper understanding of history, celebrate diversity, and strengthen our school community.
Thank you to our students, staff, and families for making this celebration meaningful and memorable.
