This is a reminder about the Elementary School Open House tomorrow (Thursday, April 25) from 5:00-6:30. We hope to see you all there! This is not a time to have an individual meeting with your child's teacher, but a time to come in and see some of the things your child has been doing in school and a chance to visit current, past and future classrooms if you would like. PLEASE LOOK ON THE LOST AND FOUND TABLES WHILE YOU ARE HERE. The hundreds of lost items have to belong to someone :) Also, the Spring Band Concert starts at 7:00 pm that night at the high school. Thanks!
Mr. Kean
