I hope everyone had a chance to enjoy the Superbowl this past weekend!
On Friday we are having our Valentine’s Party. Thank you to everyone who has sent in goodies and crafts for our party. The children really appreciate. If you are sending anything in, please bring it in by Tuesday so that I can make arrangements for the remote students to pick up their things on Wednesday and Thursday.
Next week is winter break. I encourage everyone to take a break and relax!
