Wishing Everyone A Happy, Healthy & Prosperous New Year...
Parents & Guardians:
I hope everyone enjoyed the holiday break. It's hard to believe that we are entering 2020 tomorrow - boy time really marches on. Nevertheless, we are all excited to get back to work and see all of our students. As you know, this will be a short week but filled with a lot of excitement as we enter into a new year.
Remember, we have our rescheduled grade 6 Chorus & Band Winter Concerts on Thursday night at 6:30 p.m. Hope to see you there - Go Grizzlies!
Welcome Back...
