Students who were on green 4 days this week attended the reward party (Papa Doug visited with a holiday activity).

Please work with your student at home on learning to dress themselves in winter clothes.  If the snow starts to accumulate please wear snow boots to school and pack shoes to wear indoors in their backpack.

If the temperature (with windchill) is 20 or below there will be indoor line up and indoor receess.
