We've been working hard to learn our letters and sounds. Today we celebrated by making a vest and putting letter stickers on it.
To those attending 8th grade Promotion today, please do not enter the building until 2:30. We want to make sure to get our students dismissed prior to anyone entering.

Because of the unexpected cancellation, the district will have to alter the end of the year calendar. The last day for student attendance will be Thursday, May 25, and the last day for teachers will be Friday, May 26. All other timelines and schedules will remain the same.
