If you have any paperback or hardback books, or old video tapes you would like to donate, please bring them to Mrs. Main in the elementary library by Friday, June 3rd. Proceeds would go towards our summer reading program

Summer Tutoring
Hello Everyone,
I just wanted to let you know that I will be offering tutoring services during the course of the summer. My focus will be elementary reading and math. I will also include study skills as an area of concentration for middle school. I will be at school on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:00- 12:00. If you would like to arrange tutoring for your child, please phone me at school. At that time we can discuss details and make plans to assist your child.
Thank you,
Kandy Elmore
Resource teacher

Honoring All Who Served...

Dear Heavenly Father,
As we remember those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom, we think of how they have followed in the footsteps of your son, our Savior, Jesus Christ. Please hold our service men and women in your strong arms. Cover them with your sheltering grace and presence as they stand in the gap for our protection. We also remember the families of our troops and ask for your unique blessings to fill their homes and your peace, provision, and strength to fill their lives. May the members of our armed forces be filled with courage to face each day and may they trust in the Lord's mighty power to accomplish each task. Let our military brothers and sisters feel our love and support. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
