CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING

POSTPONED

Although we have enough snow, our tentative cross-country skiing field trip scheduled for tomorrow has been postponed due to the low temperature. We will be having a regular day of school. 

This field trip has always been weather dependent and if it doesn’t align with our school calendar, this trip will be skipped. We will let you know as soon as a possible date is available. It is typically scheduled on a Monday or Friday.
