We love getting to see our students perform in the classroom, on stage, and beyond! This week, we celebrated our sixth graders playing with the middle school wind ensemble and students participating in their last youth league track meet for the season!

Mrs. Hoover met with all grade levels to talk about end of the year expectations and setting goals to finish the year strong. Please talk to your child about what they plan to do have an excellent end to this already great school year!

Special thanks to all who helped to celebrate our teachers and staff! They enjoyed special meals, treats, and fun dress themes throughout the week!
