I hope everyone had a wonder long weekend. I hope that you got to enjoy some family time and got a chance to sharpen the saw!  In honor of the reason we were not in school yesterday, thank you to all of our military families and those men and women who sacrificed their lives for our country!

We are having a great start to our day!  The 2nd Graders have headed out on a field trip to Public works and Ms. Clarkson's 2nd Grade ALERT class was up bright and early this morning and is headed to Table Rock. You should have received a phone message last night from Mrs. Goodrich, our Registrar, reminding you that it is time for our annual Proof of Residency.  Please send in a current utility bill that is in it's original form.  No copies please! (Please refer to 5/19/14 posting for  acceptable proofs letter)  

Today we also have a message from Ms. Serveance, our school Nurse:
