From the Principal.......
The 4 quarter stretch is sometimes a tough one! There's a lot going on, with no scheduled out of school breaks. It looks like we might have made it through the year with no snow days (Knock on wood). However it is time to gear up and be prepared for severe weather season. Please review tornado procedures with your classroom. Ms. Wood will be conducting tornado drills very soon as a refresher.
