Good afternoon,
I hope you all are having a great weekend. We are looking forward to some drying weather this week.
We had a great turnout at our All Pro Dad meeting last week. Thank you to all that were able to attend.
The Literati Book Fair will take place in our media center this week from January 29-February 2nd. Please see information below on how your child can purchase items from the book fair.
Please make plans now to attend our Winter Fest Family Night on Thursday, February 15th from 5:30-7:30 PM. We will provide games, educational activities, food, and fun for all those that attend. Your child should have received an informational Winter Fest flyer this week with the QR code to RSVP. The flyer and RSVP link will also continued to be added to the weekly Smore. We hope to see you there!
As always, reach out to the front office with any questions at (864) 397-1800.
