Vaughan Voice

What a great week! We enjoyed all the dress up days, parties, and much more! I want to take a moment to thank you all for the sweets, gifts, cards, etc. that you sent to the office, as well as our staff. We truly appreciate it!

As a reminder, there will be no school from December 19 - January 3. We'll look forward to seeing our students back on Wednesday, January 4th, 2023!

Thank you for sharing your sweet kiddos with us. We wish you a Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!
