There is no school today. Today, we celebrate and honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and all of the change that he worked toward.
Please remember, there will be NO SCHOOL tomorrow, Monday, January 15, in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day. We hope you have a meaningful day off from school.
Did you know that reading and writing with your students, even for just a short time, daily, can help them develop and strengthen a number of skills. Some skills include attention span, listening skills, and emotional development. What books are you all reading at home?
