Every Day Counts when it comes to your child’s success in school! 📚
Did you know? Missing just 2 days a month can add up to 18+ days in a year, that's nearly a whole month of lost learning! Even early on, frequent absences can make it harder for children to keep up and stay confident in class.
To make attendance extra fun, we’re kicking off our attendance initiative with dress-up days this week! Let’s keep our students excited to come to school, learn, and show their school spirit!

Welcome to Kindergarten!


This week is "Start With Hello" Week! Each day, students will be invited to take part in fun daily challenges designed to promote kindness, connection, and a welcoming atmosphere here at Golden Spike. Our school counselors will also be visiting classrooms to teach this important lesson and help foster a sense of belonging for everyone!


We sure are excited to start school tomorrow! Doors open at 8:40 and students are dismissed at 1:20 all week!

Welcome Back!
