Week of January 19-22

Happy Winter! 

As the snow is finally falling... Please remember that the first snow day will be a regular snowday, but any after that will be Blizzard Bag Days. If you need extra copies or would prefer to do the online options- please click on the link to the right of this post. Remember- you can do Blizzard Bags ahead of time, but 80% of the school must complete their bags in order for the day to count!

Reminders:

Lego Club is this Friday- please be sure to pick up your child by 4:00.
Students must have hats, mittens, boots, winter coats, and snowpants to play out in the snow.
