March Rockets of the Month
Each month, our students focus on one of our many character traits. "Inquisitiveness" was the focal point during the month of March. Each classroom teacher selected one student who best exemplified that trait and that student is named the "Rocket of the Month" for his or her class.

The deadline to order is May 4, 2018. Please be sure to enter the correct information so your child will receive the correct supply kit. If you are interested in purchasing a kit, please do so soon! Once the deadline passes, kits will no longer be available for sale.
