On Friday, April 29, 2016 we will have the 9th Annual Nature Festival in the Library Courtyard from 3:30 - 5 pm. A celebration of Earth Day, May Day and Arbor Day consisting of Earth Friendly speakers, games and craft activities. More details of our guest speakers and activities will be sent home as the date gets closer. Please mark your calendars. (This year the event is being held on a Friday as so many Inter Elementary Students miss the event due to instrumental or choir rehearsal! - Hopefully this day change will allow more students to attend.
