Valentine’s Day Team & Family Time On Valentine’s Day, scholars will participate in a homeroom celebration at the end of the school day. If your scholar would like to participate, they can bring 32 Valentine’s Day cards to pass out. Once these cards are passed out, scholars will have time to open them! We ask that you don’t send your scholar with extra snacks or drinks on this day as these parties will not include food. Thank you!
Picture of the Week: Amazing Work!
Shout out to our scholars in 4th grade high literature groups for working hard both at school and at home to create amazing projects! Hoot! Hoot!
