Dear Families,
We hope you and your family are doing well. The teachers and I want to thank you for all your efforts to support your students' progress during this time of remote learning. We continue to appreciate and be impressed by our students' participation in virtual meetings and their hard work in getting assignments completed. I hope you all find time to enjoy the beautiful weather this long weekend and we look forward to seeing all our students again on Tuesday. Happy Memorial Day to you all and thank you to those family members who have served or are currently serving to protect our community and country.
Take care,
Brian

Science Fun
Mia enjoyed doing this science challenge today for School Spirit Week. She mixed oil, water, and natural food colorant, then combined alka seltzer! The results were really cool! Mia loved filming the results that resembled something like a lava lamp!
