Unicorn Families,
Please find our Meet the Teacher schedule and note the dates and times for the different grade levels.
For the safety of our staff, students and community, we are kindly asking that only two adults accompany the student. We also strongly encourage that all who attend wear masks.
Remember that during Meet the Teacher, you will get to meet your child’s teacher and drop off the school supplies so students don’t have to worry about carrying them on the first day of school.
Click on the link below to view each grade level’s school supply list in case you need it again.

We will be providing every student with a school box, one pair of scissors, 1 pack of pencils, 2 small glue sticks, a 24-count box of crayons, an eraser and some hand sanitizer (please see picture so you may see what they are getting).
As always, if you have questions, you may contact the front office at 956-971-4554, or you may send a message via Class Dojo to Mrs. Valenzuela, principal.
We can’t wait to see our unicorns. We miss you so much! Gooooo unicorns! 💙🦄
