This month, we were fortunate enough to welcome our career guest speakers Paula Larson, Jeremy Ostrander and Dave Baker! We greatly appreciate them taking the time to share their insights with our students.
This week in the library Mrs. Courtney is reading Julia's House for Lost Creatures to the second and third graders. Then we will create our own "lost" creatures. Imagination at work!!!
Dear Families,
We love seeing our students staying hydrated and ready to learn!
Just a friendly reminder that water is the only beverage students should bring in their water bottles to school. As outlined in our school handbook, soda, soft drinks, and energy drinks are not allowed.
Please make sure your child’s water bottle is leak-proof and closes securely—that helps keep backpacks, desks, and floors nice and dry!
Thanks for your support in helping us keep everyone clean, healthy, and focused on learning!
Sincerely,
Dr. Meier
