Support our Specials Teachers!
It's cold season, and will be allergy season before we know it. The Specials teachers appreciate any tissue donations (they do not have a homeroom supply to tap into). Ms. Witte would also appreciate newspapers, plastic grocery bags, wipes, and soap for the art room. Thank you for any donations you can provide!

Yearbook orders are due by April 27. Check your email for a note from LifeTouch or visit ybpay.lifetouch.com (Yearbook ID Code 1694426) and order today!
