Thank you for all of your support of our Multiplication Ice Cream Challenge last Monday! This was such a fun way to reward the students’ hard work on mastering their multiplication facts.
We are excited to have our Veterans back in the building on November 11th at 8:30 for our Veterans Day Program. Our 1st grader choral performance will be such a highlight to celebrate them! Please note all visitors will be required to sign in at our visitors center in the front office. You must bring a photo ID. Due to limited seating, students with special guests will be joining us in the auditorium with our 1st grade. All other students will remain in their classroom where the program will be streamed to them. We encourage everyone to wear red/white/blue that day!
