Important Information

I can’t believe that we are two-thirds of the way through the school year. The second trimester ends on Thursday.

The Parent/Guardian signature page for the “stuffed” animal report was due last Tuesday, March 3rd. Books for the stuffed animal report need to be approved by this Tuesday, March 10th.
