This Week's Message
We had fun Friday with our 50th celebration and kickball and activities along with our 8th grade Dance. We located the time capsule from the year 2000 and are still in the process of digging it up. Once it is up we will have the artifacts on display.
This week marks our last week of the school year. Below are this week’s activities:
- Wednesday, June 4-8th Grade Awards (Families of students receiving awards will be notified)
- Thursday, June 5-8th Grade Walkthrough Celebration 6:00-7:00 p.m. Last line up at 6:50 p.m. This is a festive event and families can come and go as they please. Families and students will be celebrated as they walk the 8th grade hallway to receive their certificate of completion and then can gather in the cafeteria for pictures and ice cream treats.
- Friday, June 6-This is the last day of school and students will be dismissed early at 1:05 p.m. This is also our field day!
