From the Principal
|
Dear Steele families,
If you don't like the weather, wait a minute. This week has certainly lived up to Colorado's reputation for rapidly changing weather! As always, we do our best to make sure we get kids outside to play as often as possible. Please make sure to send students to school in layers and with appropriate outside gear like boots and mittens.
If you're heading into the building, be sure to check out "Steele's Utopia" hanging in the hall across from the office. Ms. Emily Joy has worked with all students and staff to create our own pieces of utopia. The work is inspired by artist Jonathan Saiz.
Check out this week's Caught in the Act winners:
Have a great weekend!
