ENJOY SPRING BREAK – APRIL 6-10
I hope you have a wonderful spring break, and we will see you back on campus on Monday, April 13. Make sure to keep reading over break to keep those skills sharp! April is National Library Month, and what's a better way to celebrate than checking out a book and enjoying it over break with your student!
ATTENDANCE CHALLENGE WINNERS
Congratulations to Mrs. Murphy's 3rd-grade class for winning our attendance challenge with an incredible 98.09% attendance rate! These kiddos got to enjoy an extra hour of recess, face painting, bubbles, watermelon, and a DJ performance by me! A big thank you to our food services for the Monday cookie parties, our student body council & Mrs. Panella for organizing the fun, and to our amazing families who made sure their students were at school on time and ready to learn.
