Share Your Adventures!

Does your kid miss being in school? The teachers and staff miss having them!

Consider sending your child's teacher a picture of an afternoon adventure, a thank you note, or a story shared at dinner.

And THANK YOU for being a partner in your child's learning in a way you never expected. You're doing great!

Equity and Inclusion Committee meeting begins at 6:30 p.m.
