- Ask your children to tell you all about the Color Battle, and work with them to suggest creative ways for them to help raise funds to support the school.
- PLEASE also consider volunteering yourself for a couple of hours of support time at the event so you can see what all the fun is about!
- Email Ben Barras at benbarras@comcast.net with “Volunteer” in the subject line to become involved.

BYOD Reminders
Our students have been doing a great job this year with the BYOD policies. As a reminder, student devices need to be turned off and put away during the instructional day, unless a teacher has requested them for instructional purposes. If you need to get a message to your student, please contact the front office. We kindly ask that you please not text your student during the day.
