We are looking forward to a great week on campus! This is the final week of state testing, Hamilton is ready to be performed by Mrs. Dippre's class, and it finally seems like the warm weather is here to stay. Please send your child with a water bottle each day. Our kiddos have PE everyday, and as it gets hotter out we need to ensure they are staying hydrated.
Last week, we continued state testing, held Picture Day, and our students enjoyed the solar eclipse. What a wonderful experience for our students! I enjoyed watching the students observe and their reactions as they looked up at the sun with their glasses on for the first time.
As a friendly reminder, Lost & Found items get donated each Friday. If your child has misplaced an item, please encourage them to check Lost & Found before the end of the week.
Warmly,
Katie Cox
