| Principal's Message |
This week is teacher appreciation week. It would be great time for students to give an extra thank you to all their teachers for all they do for them throughout the year.
The next two days (Thursday and Friday) will be STAR make-ups for 8th graders only. If your 8th graders missed any of the testing, please do your best to have them in school and we will ensure they finish their testing.
Have a fantastic week.
