We have once again partnered with Schoolkidz to offer school supply boxes for next year for grades K-5th. Please know that this is just an option for those who don't want to search out all of the supplies themselves. All orders will be done online at www.shopttkits.com (no paper orders). Our school account # to order online is 12346. Please make sure that you are ordering for the grade that your child will be in NEXT year. These kits will be available to purchase online until May 24th and will be in the classroom on the 1st day of school if you order one. Thanks!

This is a reminder about the Elementary School Open House tomorrow (Thursday, April 25) from 5:00-6:30. We hope to see you all there! This is not a time to have an individual meeting with your child's teacher, but a time to come in and see some of the things your child has been doing in school and a chance to visit current, past and future classrooms if you would like. PLEASE LOOK ON THE LOST AND FOUND TABLES WHILE YOU ARE HERE. The hundreds of lost items have to belong to someone :) Also, the Spring Band Concert starts at 7:00 pm that night at the high school. Thanks!
