A few announcements: 1. Transfers, please make sure that you get your paperwork turned in via the email listed. (I have attached the document that can be printed out and emailed.) This is due Friday, April 24th. If we do not hear back, we will assume you’ve made other plans. 2. Popcorn Sales. We do not currently have the popcorn on campus. It is still at the factory. As soon as we have this on campus, we will push out information on picking up. 3. Items on campus (jackets, binders, etc) that belong to your children will be organized. Nothing is going anywhere for the time being. We will communicate with you about a date and time to drop off items (books, chrome books, calculators) and pick up your items as soon as that is available. We thank you very much for your patience and understanding as we are trying to do what’s best for our students and keep everyone safe.

Just a reminder about packet pick up (and pee wee basketball pictures) from 7am-9am.

Final Packet Pick Up Monday (April 20th) from 7 am- 9 am for students in 1st and 2nd grade (kindergarten sent enough work at the last pickup). All students 3rd grade and up who do not have internet access will also have packets to pick up! See you tomorrow using the old bus lane out front of the school. Thank you.

Here's some news from our librarian, Mrs. Wallin

CDC now recommends you wear a mask in public where you can’t avoid being near people, like in grocery stores, pharmacies & healthcare settings https://bit.ly/2V8o5Y2. Remember though, your local authorities may have already issued a specific order re: masks. #StayHomeTexas CDC recomienda que use una máscara en público donde no pueda evitar estar cerca de personas, como en supermercados, farmacias y centros de salud https://bit.ly/2V8o5Y2. Es posible que sus autoridades locales ya hayan hecho obligatorio el uso de máscaras. #StayHomeTexas
