Due to the forecast for inclement weather this week, all elementary students will receive take-home learning packets and secondary students will complete work as assigned by their teachers. This work is to be completed over the days that school will not be in session. These assignments will come home with them Tuesday. In addition, the food services department has prepared food that students can eat at home during this time. If your child is absent on Tuesday, please call the school and make arrangements to pick up the learning packets and food.

Assignments will be collected and reviewed upon the first return to school. If you have questions during these remote learning days, please contact your child’s teacher.

The students, in Mrs. Edmunds' class, explored different types of weather and what they would see in the sky! Students created a "W is for Weather" craft while learning about sunny, cloudy, rainy, and snowy weather. They also made expressive art with balloons in the sky using various materials and had fun designing and decorating their very own windsocks. It’s been a creative and educational journey through the world of weather!
