Warrior Connection
#worldchangingwarriors
Word for the Warrior....
Our custodians are working hard cleaning classrooms. Because we had no idea we would be called out fo school so soon and for so long, many classrooms still have a lot laying around, etc. If you would like to come to school to clean up your classrooms, you can come. Some have asked. That will make it easier for our custodians to clean. You are under no obligation to come to school! Just letting you know!
BRAVO to our custodians! They have been working NONSTOP to ensure that our spaces are clean and disinfected! THANK YOU! YOU ARE THE BEST!

Clothes Closet Needs
Is anyone Spring Cleaning?
We have a clothes closet at Sevier for students to use if they need to change clothes or if they are in need of clothes. We encourage students to keep what we give them when they come to the clothes closet. If you are doing any Spring Cleaning, consider donating your old clothes to the Sevier Clothes Closet. We are also always in need of new socks and underwear for students.
Thank you!
