THIS WEEK

Poor Miss Julie has Influenza B! Be patient if you call us or come in the next few days . . . as I am sure you can imagine hers are tough shoes to fill!

Spring is right around the corner! I know I have been online buying new shorts and sandals for my kiddos which means it's time to load up on SCRIP cards. Be sure and place an order for all those summer clothes and Easter Basket items!

LAST WEEK

We had a great time around here last week! It was Dr. Suess' birthday so the kinder enjoyed green eggs and ham!

The first and second graders are getting into their unit on rocks. All the first graders have adopted a rock!

There were some crazy shenanigans in 6th- 8th grade too! Lots of learning involved!
