Thanks for all your hard work at our rehearsals, Hawks!
Here’s a gentle reminder that we have a change to our schedule next week. Monday is a holiday (yay!), so next week’s after-school rehearsal will be on Thursday, February 19 until 5:30 pm. Only actors from scenes 1 and 2 who have speaking parts need to attend. Actors should bring an extra snack, as well as a book or quiet activity. Remember that all changes and updates will be posted on our Dragon Tale website. Don’t forget to bookmark it:. https://dragontaleathps.weebly.com

2026 2027 Kindergarten Registration Now Open
Welcome to Kindergarten in Limestone. If your child was born in 2022, now is the time to register your new student to start school this September.
Kindergarten is a wonderful new world of learning and growing and a very exciting time for both you and your student. We learn how to read, how to write and we make so many new friends. Our educator teams of a teacher and early childhood educator, help us along the way. You can feel confident your child will be cared for within safe and inclusive environments.
Limestone has an open boundary administrative procedure, [Section 300 – Students AP305 Student Transfers], for student registrations. Limestone welcomes all students, promoting and encouraging families to attend their area school, but we understand that it is best interest of some students to attend an out-of-boundary school and that selecting the right educational setting for your new student is a significant decision.
Selecting an out-of-boundary school for your new student is a decision influenced by many factors. The school may be closer to a workplace or near a childcare provider that might be more convenient for drop-off and pick-up routines. In accordance with board policy, by default, students will be enrolled in the school designated within their boundary area, based on their home address.
We aim to accommodate family preferences, but please note that out-of-boundary placements are not guaranteed, and families will be responsible for organizing transportation to and from out-of-boundary schools.
Students may be permitted to attend any school within the board when there is available student space, upon submission and approval of the proper application. The board will not be held responsible for the provision of any transportation for students outside of their regular school boundary area. This applies to both students within Limestone’s geographic boundaries (out-of-boundary), and students who live outside of those boundaries (out-of-district).
We are committed to supporting you every step of the way. Our dedicated staff are here to assist you throughout this process. If you have any questions or need more information, please contact the school.
Let us embark on this exciting educational journey together!
