Hello Parents! We are settling back into our routine after our break. We certainly have been spoiled as far as the winter weather this year! Please do however, remember to send all the needed cold wear gear for recess even though there is not a lot of snow. Also, make sure your child’s items are labeled.
Remember to watch the parent connection and district newsletter for any up-coming important dates and information.
Have a great month!
Mrs. Blosmo
