WE ARE THANKFUL FOR A SAFE AND HEALTHY CAMPUS! Thank you for your continued efforts to keep our community healthy and our campus open! Thanksgiving Break is a good opportunity to give backpacks, lunch kits, water bottles, and masks an extra-thorough cleaning; use this time to double-check that masks fit comfortably and securely cover your child's mouth and nose. Please, celebrate the holiday season safely and responsibly.
