A message from Principal Bivens
Happy April!
We have just over 7 weeks of school left in the 22/23 school year. It’s hard to believe that summer is almost here. We began State Assessments this week. In case you missed it, the link to our State Assessment schedule is listed below. Also, please be on the lookout for information on Camp Invention, which will be coming out very soon!
