Family Picnic / Open House
Please RSVP so we know you will be attending the Family Picnic & New Owen Marsh Open House.
This year, we are excited to offer an open house at the new elementary school from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., giving families an opportunity to walk through the building with their student and explore the new space together.
Families can gather in the green space/ playground area at the current Owen Marsh for the family picnic.
We will call for different grade levels to come over to the new Owen Marsh starting at 11:30 a.m. to walk through and view the new space.
