Adams Family newsletter

Good Evening Adams Students and Families,

We apologize for the lateness in this newsletter. It has been a wonderful weekend, so being inside working was not at the top of our list.

Thank you to all of the families that came to cheer on our students this past Friday at Track & Field. It was a great day and our students had so much fun.

Please mark your calendars for this Friday for our All School Picnic. You are invited to have lunch with your student during their lunch time. Students will be eating outside in the front of the building. We hope to see you there!

Let's have a great week!
