THANK YOU!!
Thank you to everyone who came to our class parties or helped out in any way! YOU made it a success and the kids had so much fun decorating cookies, opening presents, and reading their Santa letters!

Ipads at Home
Families, as a reminder, please make sure your student is bringing their ipad to school every day and that it is fully charged. The students miss out on too much work when they are left at home. Also, their Google Drive folders are for their school projects. Please do not remove anything or add anything unless asked by a teacher. As a reminder, school ipads are for educational use only. Please be aware of pictures being taken at home and continue to monitor them on a daily basis.
Thank you!
