- Orchestra is cancelled due to the President's Day holiday.
- Congratulations to all the Grade 4 Spelling Bee Participants. We are very proud of your efforts!
- 2/22 Field Trip to JPL. Chaperone spots for this trip are full. We will be back on campus for lunch, but all students should bring a lunch from home since it will be just after the cafeteria has closed. Students should wear their blue/gold trip t-shirt and shoes comfortable for walking. We will be both in and out of doors. Students should have a large breakfast as there may not be time for snack depending on what time our bus arrives. Please bring a small snack that can be eaten quickly (such as a granola bar) in the hope that there is time. Thank you!
- Reminder- Please check that your child's HW has been completed, and sign the log nightly. We have had many students arrive to class with assignments only partially completed and many who did not bring math books, protractors, etc. This really slows the flow of class. Please help make sure your child is ready for class each day.
