News from Principal Lamothe

As spring approaches, I would like to remind you and your families that our lost and found is currently filled with jackets, gloves, and water bottles. We have been encouraging students to check the lost and found throughout the week for any items that may belong to them. Please take a moment to remind your families to check as well, in case they are missing anything.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!
