We made it! We hope you have a fantastic week next week and are ready to return for the March-April stretch on 3/8!
Students PK-4 all enjoyed a "dance party" PBIS celebration today in the gym for filling up our "aquarium" for tons of safe, respectful and responsible behaviors!
We wish you a restful break with hopefully lots of fresh snow!
Enjoy!
