K-8 Corner

December has snuck up on us and the end of the calendar year is fast approaching.  

The wintery winds have blown in a bluster of wonderful and exciting activities for all

the K-8 students.  

We are excited to be "very crafty" this month with fun decor to celebrate the month of December.  

To celebrate the winter season, each class will be having a party on the last week before winter break so be on the lookout for information from your teacher.

See you in the classroom!
