February is Black History Month
Every February, the U.S. honors the contributions and sacrifices of African Americans who have helped shape the nation. Black History Month celebrates the rich cultural heritage, triumphs and adversities that are an indelible part of our country's history. For more information, please check out this link.
Communication Night Change
Our 2nd round of Communication Nights are coming up. Teachers will send out an email with links to sign up for a time. The first night will be Feb 29. The 2nd night was originally scheduled for Mar 5. Unfortunately, we have a scheduling conflict and have to move it to Mar 7. The district was just informed the MN Primary is scheduled for Mar 5 and by law, we can not have school events from 6-8 pm. that evening. Sorry for any confusion or confilcts this may present.
