Important date change!! Our 3rd quarter PBIS celebration will be moved to WEDNESDAY March 20th, instead of Friday the 22nd due to weather forecast.

We closed out Kindness month, February, with a Snack Attack. Shout out to Ms. Gill's 3rd grade class who had the most donations. They will have an ice cream party soon. All of the snacks have been redistributed to classrooms and in the hands of those who need them the most. Thank you PTO helping coordinate this and making it happen.
