It was a great week of learning and we celebrated the 100th day of school this week! This means we only have 79 days left! I can't get over how much fun we are having because our days are flying by! Next week is National School Choice Week and we love being able to talk about our school and the focus that allows our students to learn through their interests. I hope everyone has a wonderful week end and we will see you Monday!
Committed to Success,
Heather Touchberry
