EES Deadlines are approaching on 4/27!  Please see important reminders in an email sent by Mindy on 4/10.  

A sincere thank you to all of the teachers, EAs and PPTs providing coverage on resource days. Also, thank you to the teachers for letting your students know about the changes and encouraging positive behavior regardless of who is teaching them.  As a reminder, these changes will continue throughout the quarter and may vary by week.

Thank you to the PTA and all of the faculty and staff and parent volunteers for the movie night last week!  Hopefully you were able to raise some funds for your grade levels. We are looking forward to PTA Safety Week to help remind our school community of safety practices.  Please be sure to review the information with your students.
