Congratulations to Lynette who welcomed another grandchild, Gavin Liam, yesterday!

Lots of good information in Dr. Woell's parent communication this week, make sure you give it a read when you have a chance.

Thanks to Melissa for planning our 4th grade visit with Evergreen.  4th graders will be here on April 11th (an adjustment from the original date of the 12th due to Evergreen IAR testing and a few other factors).  Also thanks in advance to the 5th grade team for being here for the 4th grade Parent Night which will be on April 12th.  




The County Wide institute is coming up soon.  I am still missing a few planning forms from staff staying in-house.  Please make sure that you fill out the google form today if you haven't done so already so that everyone is accounted for.

Please take time to fill out the 5 Essentials Survey if you have not done so yet.

"Every positive change, every jump to a higher level of energy and awareness, involves a rite of passage. To ascend to a higher rung on the ladder of personal evolution, we must go through a period of discomfort, of initiation. I have never found an exception." -- Dan Millman

"Our community belongs to us and whether it is mean or majestic, whether arrayed in glory or covered in shame, we cannot but share its character and destiny." -- Frederick Douglass
