A Message from the Principal
This week, we will be doing a school-wide STEAM day project to build a Turkey Trap to catch that Thanksgiving turkey that's been roaming the school! Please send in supplies such as boxes, toilet paper rolls, string, and masking tape to help our kids have the best time planning the design of and then building the best traps ever!
