Tripp Tower Celebration
Your children have FILLED the Tripp Tower and have earned Hawaiian Day! We purchased a leiu for each student and we will celebrate as a school on Tuesday, October 22nd. Students can dress in Hawaiian clothing if they wish. We will also have a large "Hawaiian" backdrop for pictures. Congrats to your amazing kids! They are demonstrating being respectful, responsible and safe!
