Upcoming Events & Reminders

Spring Break - No School March 30th-April 8th

Mr. Swims - A family has volunteer to take our dear Mr. Swims for spring break (Thank you, Berg Family!), but if your family is still interested in caring for our turtle, you can start thinking about whether or not you would like to look after him for part of the summer..


Donations - If you are willing and able, please take a look at a few items that we would appreciate for our community: 
  • 90 Watt Splashproof Halogen Lamp (for Mr. Swims)
