Miss. Chinavare's class had so much fun practicing their spelling words using shaving cream! They are working on -ss, -ll, -zz, and -ff endings. This is a great sensory activity that helps promote their learning and allows them to "erase" and fix any mistakes!

I am thrilled to announce that our 2024 Sinking Fund passed!!! Thank you to everyone that helped spread the word and all of our community members that voted.
We have several remaining projects with the 2019-2024 funds this year (Middle School AC unit by spring break, Townsend windows by spring break, paving all lots and drives in June). We are excited to be able to begin planning much needed improvement projects with our 2025-2029 Sinking Fund. Again, thank you all!!
