Art Survey
Last week I send out a quick survey to see if parents preferred art being sent home throughout the year or altogether at the end. The results are in, and I will be sending a book home at the end of the year. I may send home some pieces here and there, but expect a book at the end! Thank you to all who responded... it was very helpful!
Report cards are being sent home this THURSDAY (11/19)
