News from Mr. Harris
It has become evident that the cold and flu season has returned. Please make sure that if your child is not feeling well, to keep them home until they are feeling able to return.
We will BE CLOSED on Tuesday, November 8th for Voting Day. This is a student and staff non-attendance day.
I would again like to thank all of the parents that are dropping off and picking up their children safely. Please pull up as far as you can to drop off your children so we can get them in to school as quickly as possible. I know most parents want to take a LEFT out of our parking lot, but there is a Right Turn Only sign as you exit. Again, I do not want anyone to get into an accident for any reason. Thank you again for your understanding and support.
The cold weather is going to be back soon, so please dress your children for the weather. We like to get them outside as much as possible. If you are in need of any winter gear and cannot get them for your children, please contact me and we will work together to make sure they have what they need.
I hope you had a wonderful weekend and we look forward to a continued successful school year.
