Happy Monday! As the weather cools off, all our kids are dressing in layers. If you seem to be missing a layer, check the lost and found at school. We've heard they are filling up!
And a quick reminder that there is no school on Thursday, November 11th in observance of Veteran's Day. Thank you so much to those who are serving or have served in the military. We appreciate the sacrifices you have made for our country.

Thanksgiving is approaching and there’s so much to be grateful for like being back in school! Here are some helpful tips to help reduce, reuse and recycle….
- Avoid using paper goods.
- Use casserole dishes, platters, pans etc instead of the aluminum disposable ones. And if you must, make sure to recycle them.
- Don’t waste food. There are many local churches and organizations that gladly welcome leftovers for those in need.
Together we can make a difference!
