Principal's Corner
Thank You
Thank you to all parents for doing your best to avoid appointments that take students out of school during ISTEP. Any absences require us to find time, space, and staff members who can administer the make-up tests one on one. So far there have been very few students absent, even for sickness. I understand that some situations can not be helped, but I appreciate the effort.
Fish Fry
Please remember that our 7th grade is sponsoring a fish fry tonight in the school cafeteria. It is a free will offering. All of the proceeds go to their class trip, graduation, graduation dance, and class t-shirts.

Thank you to everyone who signed up for Enrichment classes! We had an overwhelming response and almost every class is completely full or overflowing! We did our very best to make sure each student was enrolled in a least one class. Emails were sent out last week with the class information, Emergency Record Form and payment info. We hope your kids enjoy their classes!
Fundraiser updates: The Recycling Drive made over $500 for PE equipment and the Christmas Card Sale made over $1300! Way to go Cardinals! Every little bit helps and we appreciate your support!

Cafeteria News
We are no longer sending out reminders for lunch balances. If you need to check your child's lunch balance you can do it on-line at EzSchoolPay.org, or by giving us a call or e-mailing us. If you have not put any money in for a while, this would be a great time to do so. We have quite a few negative lunch balances.
Thanks!
