Re-Registration Now Open e-registration for the upcoming school year is officially open! All Puma families must complete the re-registration process through their ASPEN account. This is required for every student, even if your family will be PCS’ing. If you will not be returning next school year, please log into ASPEN and select the option indicating that your  student will not be returning. Completing this step  helps us plan accurately and ensures records are  properly updated.

Deadline: All families must complete re-registration by the last day of school.

please contact Mrs. Leon @ Giomara.LeonBurgos@dodea.edu
Thank you for taking care of this important step and 
for being part of our Puma community!

As American Heart Month comes to a close, I want to remind our students and families how important it is to protect growing hearts. Smoking, vaping, and exposure to secondhand smoke can harm developing lungs and blood vessels, increasing the risk of heart problems later in life. Choosing to stay smoke‑free—and keeping your home and car smoke‑free—helps protect every child’s well‑being. Together, we can build lifelong habits that support strong, healthy hearts in our school community!
