Happy Friday, Lil Steamer Families!
September 9, 2022
From the desk of: Principal Hoese
Lil Steamer Families --
Sometimes you control the day, and other times the day controls you.
I'm sorry to say that this week got the better of me, and unfortunately I do not have a principal's note for our newsletter this week.
I'll do better next week!

From the desk of: School Counselor Mrs. Meumann
This past week on Wellness Wednesday we encouraged students to practice healthy habits to achieve better mental and physical health. Elementary students need 9-12 hours of sleep a night. When you get enough sleep, your attention, memory, and overall mood are better.
