We would like to give a very appreciative "Thank you" to our Director of Buildings and Grounds, Charlie Milne and our entire Buildings and Grounds staff for their tireless work in the aftermath of the Blizzard. If you saw the state of the main and Primary campuses, you would understand what these folks did to clear the snow and to first make our properties passable and then ultimately useable. We appreciate you and your dedication to the kids and our district!

5 week progress reports are now available on the Portal. Parents & guardians are the number one influence on our students' success. Please take 15-20 minutes this week to review the progress reports with your child(ren).
