Principal's Message
I hope you have purchased your ticket for this year's PTA Auction for Education: Birdies & Bids event. This event will wrap up our weeklong online auction and is a great event for parents to connect and celebrate our Murwood community. Hope to see you all there!
Mrs. Lauren has started our annual Tournament of Books and we have some outstanding books for the students to choose from. Each week students hear two read alouds and get to vote for the book they think is the best. At the end of the tournament we will have one top book! See the bracket below. Be sure to ask your child(ren) about which books they have voted for and why they enjoyed them.
A reminder to all of our families that drive their students to school in the morning. Remember to take your time and be aware of the students, families and staff as everyone is trying to make their way safely onto campus. Please remember to come to full stops, keep your eyes on the road and to use a slow speed through the parking lot.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
