Skit-Thursday

I just wanted to remind everyone that we will be performing our friendship skit during division chapel on Thursday.  This will be a very informal skit.  Students DO NOT have to memorize their lines.  They will be holding a copy of the skit with their lines highlighted while performing.

Thanks,

Brandy

Rock Ranch Field Trip-Re-scheduled

I am still waiting to hear back from the Rock Ranch, but I know that you all need to know whether the field trip is being re-scheduled or not......so, I am going to go ahead and cancel the trip.  I am still waiting to hear back from the Rock Ranch on a re-scheduled date.  I am hoping for next week.  I will let you know ASAP!  Sorry for the late notice.  I hope to hear back from them by the end of the day today. 

We had a great Halloween party!  Thanks to all of the parents for making it such a hit!
