Friday, 11/6 Remote Learning Day Plan
Students will bring home hard copies of their needed materials tomorrow, so be on the lookout for those headed home.
Thank you to all families who have had a chance to post to the VidHug montage to honor our Veterans; please take a few moments to do so tomorrow or over the weekend!
Friday, 11/6 Remote Learning Day Specials' Choice Board: Honoring Veterans One Step At A Time
We are so excited to have the students of D101 participating in this year's Trek For Troops, a national campaign for Darkhorse Lodge! Darkhorse Lodge is a retreat center (currently being built) for Veterans where they will have a safe and nurturing space for healing, resources for mental health, job/education, and employing combat veterans at the lodge. Through donations and continued support, Darkhorse Lodge continues to complete the facilities and residence cabins at their site in Paris, Tennessee.
We send wishes of strength and healing to all of those men and women who have served, and to their families and friends that support their journey.
Be on the lookout for the Trek for Troops activity in the 11/6 Specials Choice Board!
