As part of our Character Strong/Purposeful People character education initiative, each Friday Finale will feature presentations from staff members, high school students, or community members. This event brings our entire building together, celebrating students’ academic and social achievements and showcasing the Primary School as an exceptional place to learn.
Friday Finale is open to all students from Pre-K through 4th grade. Recordings of each session will be shared on multiple platforms, including Class Dojo, Google Classroom, and the school website.
