Dear Parents:

I hope you have had a peaceful and relaxing summer. It really has gone by quickly. Now it is time to look forward to a new and productive school year. With your assistance, the teachers and I will be able to help your child have his/her best year ever.

Your child’s first day at Stewart Heights Elementary will be on Monday, August 115, 2022. Teachers will be on duty by 7:30 a.m. to greet students and assist them to their classrooms. Classes begin at 8:00 a.m., so please have your child here by that time.
