Weekly Word – July 31, 2016

Dear Parents,
I hope you are enjoying summer – I know your children are enjoying it! The best part is we still have all of August left.

If you’ve passed by school at all, you’ve seen work trucks here everyday and I do mean everyday – jackhammering and drilling. We are renovating the smaller bathrooms and the bathrooms in PreK3. They were all original from 1956 – before your time.

Also, we have moved the PreK 4 classrooms downstairs to KA and KB and KA and KB upstairs to the PreK 4 rooms behind the cafeteria. These teachers will talk to you about drop off/pick up procedures with you at orientation.

Make sure to take some to relax.

Sincerely,
Sister Merris

Please remember to check the online bulletin on our school website for important daily announcements and updates.
