Trailblazer Times
December 6, 2024
Hello, Trailblazer Families,
We were so glad to have our students back after the Thanksgiving Break! Students were deeply engaged in hands-on, interdisciplinary projects and work that encouraged critical thinking and creativity. Students reviewed learner power expectations and did a wonderful job of demonstrating those all week!
Our 12 Days of Christmas Dress-up Days continues next week! These are entirely optional, but it makes our last days before the winter break a lot of fun! Please see the flyer below for upcoming days!
Please stop in to look through the lost and found if you feel that something may be in there that belongs to your child. As a reminder, please make sure water bottles, lunchboxes, jackets, and any other outerwear is labeled with your child's first and last name on it. We continue to have an excessive amount of items not claimed. We can return items to their owner if they are labeled.
Carrie Farris, Principal
Jody Johnson, Assistant Principal
