Thank you to all the parents that donated items and their time to work the carnival! What a successful and fun night for all!
March Family Home Project went home last week! Make your own kite! Let’s get these done and hung up so maybe spring will be encouraged to get here quicker!

I sent home Spring Parent Teacher Conference notes last week! Please make sure you check the note to see if I want to meet with you or not!
