Week 27

WOOHOO! We did it! Great job with PARCC testing this week. Please turn in all baggies by the end of the day today if you are not completing your student's makeups.

We will begin makeups on Monday.  We will try to get as many as we can a day. Please let us know if you could help us out at all. The list for makeups are located here on the "makeups" tab. Please check to ensure your students are on there and if needed, please add/delete as needed.  We might be needing to use classrooms during art breaks for a space to test because we have had so many absent kids~thanks for your patience and understanding!!!

Thank you to everyone for all the delicious treats in the lounge. What a great way to celebrate the end of a busy week!

WELCOME Baby Theo "Teddy" Zilly!

Walk-A-Thon Week Fun!

Students can fundraise in 3 ways.

1. “Sell” sneakers to family and friends-there is no minimum donation for a sneaker.  Checks should be made out to JDRF.
