J(US)tice League Story Time Tonight on Zoom!
Come learn about some real-life superheroes in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. - another real-life superhero!
And be sure you notice the schedule for next week. Wednesday will be like a typical Tuesday.
Finally, thank you to the PTC who purchased the PE supplies that you picked up during Grab & Go. I know students loved the new playground balls, beach balls or ziplock bags, and jump ropes.
Hope to see you on Zoom tonight!
