Older students, it's your turn! Mrs. Woodyard is holding a plastic canvas craft camp on Wednesday, February 15th, from 1:30-3:30 PM. This project is a bit more complex, so this camp is just for 4th-8th graders. If the project is not completed that day, the craft camp will continue into the following Wednesday.

JK-8 Families-- As we start into the second semester, I just wanted to send out some reminders about the morning drop off line. I think the number one rule that everyone could follow and would make everyone happy would be: ONE STOP AND DROP. Please see the attached image, when you are between the yellow walk ways and stop, your student(s) should get out and walk to either door to enter the building. By doing this, the line will keep moving and there should be very little wait time.

If everyone follows the same procedures (as seen in the image), everyone will start their day off in a positive mood and students/staff will all enter the building safely.

If you have questions, please let me know. Thanks. --Mr. Burdorf
