It is hard to believe we are already finishing up the 3rd quarter this week; after spring break, we look forward to seeing our students back in the building on Tuesday, April 7th to start our final quarter of the year. Please remember that Spring Break runs from Monday, March 30th through Friday, April 3rd, and there will be no school for students on Monday, April 6th (Teacher Workday) On Friday, April 10th (School Planning Day). We hope you truly enjoy this break in the calendar and find time to do something fun and relaxing with your family and friends.

Sincerely,

Principal Washington
