Campus Updates & Reminders:
We are in our last week of instruction before the Winter Break. Attendance is still important, especially as we have a week full of special activities happening at school. Don’t miss our annual Snow Dance Party next Friday (12/19)!
The weather has been cold and wet lately! We have an increase of students needing a change of clothes during the school day due to the elements. It is recommended that your child has a spare set of clothing in their backpack in case they need to change during the day.
Speaking of clothes! Our Lost and Found is overflowing. Make sure to take a look for any of your child’s items on the rack in the MPR. Weather permitting, we will attempt to put all of the clothes in front of the office for you to search. Any clothes left after the 19th will be donated.
