2nd grade celebrates National Smoothie Day
According to our 2nd graders who celebrated National Smoothie Day with yummy fruit smoothies, any day is a good day for a smoothie. Thank you to the parents who spent extra time to help buy ingredients and make the smoothies in class. They were yummy.
Class Pictures will be on Oct. 18, 2024
Loss of water again!
Yes, we had another water line break on Thursday that shut down our primary restrooms until it was fixed in the afternoon. It is believed that this happened because of a crack caused by the heavy cement trucks that drove over the line when pouring the walkway cement. We hope this is the last of the challenges from our summer construction project. We praise God even through challenges.
Going on field trips.
Classes are starting to go on field trips. If you are planning on helping chaperone a field trip you must be cleared through Sterling Volunteer. This system provides training and background checks before any adult can be in a position to interact with students. You can find the links and information on how to complete the screening on our website under the parent tab.
The quarter ends next week.
Can you believe our first quarter is almost up? Please encourage and talk with your child about any incomplete assignments. It would also be good to check your child’s grades and talk with their teacher about how to best support your child.
