Getting to Know You
It was quite a heatwave this week, but students and staff demonstrated such great perseverance and flexibility. We are so grateful for their positive attitudes and all of the water you sent in! Students and teachers are settling into routines and getting to know one another. You can see Mrs. Thomas and her 2nd grade class with their "Owl About Me" bags as a fun way to introduce themselves and find common interests with new friends. We also had our first fire drill of the year, which the students and staff passed with flying colors! The arrival and dismissal team would like to offer our thanks for your cooperation that have kept our procedures running smoothly at the beginning and end of the day.
