A Note From Mrs. Looman
- I'm excited to announce that Roger Tincknell will be coming to perform for us again this year. The concert will be held in February so stay tuned for more information in the coming weeks.
- Please remind your child to check the Lost & Found. We are noticing a lot of items building up there, including lunchboxes and outerwear.
- We aim to get all students outside every day. There are a few days where the temperature and/or wind chill doesn't allow that to happen. I encourage all students to have an extra layer to keep in their locker. Please also make sure that they have appropriate outdoor clothing: hats, boots, gloves/mittens, snowpants, and a coat with them every day.
