Kindergarteners from Mrs. Lavinder-Wangelin’s room practiced their writing skills through an activity where they described what they looked like. Their writings were then given to Mrs. Lavinder’s 4th grade class in hopes that their older buddies would bring their descriptions to life! The littles were excited to have such amazing role models to work with.

Dear Families, We have used our six allocated snow days for the school year. Any additional snow days will need to be made up.

In the event that a snow day is called this week, we will have school on Monday, April 10, 2023. In light of the current storm forecast for our region, we are closely monitoring the weather to ensure student safety. Stay tuned for further updates. Superintendent Powell
