4th Grade Musical A Hit!
What an amazing job our 4th graders did performing their musical centered on the theme of recycling! Not only did our class do a wonderful job entertaining and educating the audience, but they also impressed all with their impressive set designs all done during our 2 week intensive art class! Bravo!

Progress Reports and Permission Slips
Students brought home progress reports and permission slips today in their VIP folders. As we are alternating science and social studies every 4-5 weeks, there have not been any grades to enter for social studies this 2nd quarter (last 2 weeks). We will pick up social studies Nov. 17, with studying the mystery surrounding the lost colony of Roanoke! Please be sure to return the progress report with parent/guardian signature as well as permission slip and lunch form. Nov. 24 will be here before you know it and we want to make sure all slips are returned:)
