We can hardly believe that we are entering the last week of school for 2020.  It was a year like no other and we have seen incredible growth, commitment and resilience from our students.  Our staff is very proud of what our students have achieved this year and are thankful for the tremendous support we have had from the community.  We want to wish everyone a restful break and a Merry Christmas to those who will be celebrating over the holiday.  We look forward to everyone’s safe and healthy return in January.

Mask Hygiene – We will be taking time this week to review good hygiene practices with students with regard to their masks.  As masks tend to get wet and/or soiled throughout the day, be sure to send an extra each day.  We do have extra reusable masks that we can lend to students if they have a mishap or forget their own.  If one of these masks comes home with your child, please know that it is yours to keep.

Class Celebration Reminder – Classes may be marking the last day of school with special activities or small class celebrations.  Families are reminded that we cannot distribute food or gifts to other students.  Do not send in items for sharing.
