Dorr Families,
The energy in the building is palpable as the students gear up for Spring Break. Whether you are traveling or enjoying a "staycation", we hope that you enjoy this time with your students. Take some time to put down electronics, block any distractions and just live in the moment. Be safe, stay well and we look forward to seeing you refreshed and ready to learn!
Happy Spring,
Mrs. Seniura
