Hello Parents and Students!
Welcome to the Fall 2025 Semester with Sensei Sean, Sensei
Ashton, and Sensei David. Please be sure to read all information below,
especially under "IMPORTANT NOTICE". That's where class changes will
happen, homework, events, and other changes will be. The "GENERAL
INFORMATION" portion has the weekly schedule for each location along with
the address. Attached are some that may be needed. Not all forms need to be
filled. Only if necessary. There is also a calendar attached. It includes
locations, schedules, and events happening this semester, as well as testing
dates and class ceremony which is the last day of class. Included in my
signature are links to the ActivStars Athletics Website, Facebook Pages public
and private (for karate parents only), Google Classroom, and our Website with
the same information that is in the emails being sent out.

other upcoming important events. PLEASE READ THE TESTING INFORMATION BELOW!
