Weekly Update
This week was a cold one. We spent several of our days inside for recess due to the wind chill being too cold. Please remember that we do go outside if it is above 10 degrees. Please send your child to school with a coat. If you need a coat for your child, no problem! Call us and we'll get one for him/her.
Our students continued to finish up their MAP and IReady testing this week. We will continue to wrap up for next week, but it's great to see the progress that they are making.
Thank you for your flexibility and understanding as we continue to navigate COVID. We are working through all changes that are provided by the Illinois Department of Health and CDC.
