🚨 A message from August You 🚨

Dear June Me,

Please… I am begging you… order the school supply kit now.

I do NOT want to:
❌ hunt for the “specific” purple folder
❌ argue over glue stick brands
❌ visit 4 stores for dry erase markers
❌ wander Target wondering why school starts tomorrow 😵‍💫

Bonus: every kit purchased gives $5 back to our school PTO 🙌

Your future self will thank you. Your teacher will thank you. Your sanity will thank you 😂

Order now before “back-to-school panic mode” begins!

📆 DEADLINE TO ORDER: June 15

What better way to wrap up the school year than with an awesome staff end-of-year party together! 🎉

We had amazing food catered by Mayeth's Kitchen that was generously provided by the wonderful MINT Exteriors. It was absolutely delicious, and we are so appreciative of MINT Exteriors for sponsoring our dinner!!!

We also had some fun with our special guest, caricature artist Dan McMahan! 🎨 He was so good, and we absolutely loved getting to watch everyone’s drawings come to life! Such a fun addition!

We ended the night with a little “friendly” competition, and the winning team walked away with some awesome prizes provided by Polkadots, Mama Made LLC, Amy’s Impressions, and Mrs. B’s This or That. 🎉

A huge thank you to our incredible community for always pouring into our staff and helping make this such a fun and memorable celebration of the amazing year Simpson had!!!

Hello Summer! ☀️
