Welcome Back Families!

🎒✏️ First day vibes:
✅ Backpack bigger than your child
✅ Brand new shoes already stepped in mud
✅ 4,000 photos taken before 7:00 AM
✅ Tears (mostly from parents)

Yes, the car line is long. Yes, your child forgot their lunch 4 seconds after you pulled away. And yes, you forgot to send back the important class forms.

But through the chaos, there's excitement in the air — and we’re thrilled to welcome back our amazing students and families. Let’s make it a year full of learning, laughter, and maybe mastering the car line on the first try. (We believe in you.) 💪😉

Thanks for showing up with smiles, patience, and a strong sense of humor. We're ready to launch a fantastic school year — traffic cones and all! 😅✨

BTW…we would love it if you tagged us in your “First Day of School moments” We love seeing the smiles and positive energy on the first day back! #DeSotoStrong #WinningTogether!

Let’s start strong and boost the momentum as we start a brand new year! We can’t wait to see those smiling faces tomorrow! #DeSotoStrong #WinningTogether
