Tomorrow, January 19th, is a snow make-up day ❄️ and we are looking forward to seeing everyone at school! 😊
Parents, please remember that student drop-off at the front doors begins at 7:45 am. We do not have staff available for supervision before that time. If your student attends the Before/After School Program, they may be dropped off at the back door between 7:00–7:45 am, where a staff member will be on duty with students in the Library. Thank you for helping us keep all students safe ❤️.
With the very cold temperatures this week 🥶, please help your child come prepared with a coat, hat, and gloves 🧥🧤 so they can stay warm while outside. We appreciate your support and cooperation!
Please support our Home Ec and FACS classes by purchasing a Valentine treat bundle.
All forms are due by February 9th! 💌
The FINAL Mini Dance Practice is tomorrow, Wednesday, January 7, from 5:00–6:00 PM.
Please make sure your dancer is there as we put the finishing touches on everything! We’re so excited to see all their hard work come together at their performance on Friday! 🎶✨
