FROM THE PRINCIPAL
NEW The technicians are still trying to locate a new compressor for the air conditioning unit in the gym. Because of the continued heat, I think it’s best to reschedule Muffins with Mom. This is always such an enjoyable and well attended event but it would be too uncomfortable with so many people in the gym, and the Social Hall is not large enough to accommodate the number of guests. Thank you for your understanding and let’s hope a new compressor is located soon.
NEW I would like to remind you that all children who are remaining after school for any type of activity need to have a note each time. Currently, we have a large number of after school activities and practices and a great number of children who do not have notes. This takes a great deal of time for the office staff to contact you to obtain permission. If your child does not have a note to remain after school, and we are not able to reach you, your child will not be permitted to participate in the activity, and will be dismissed in their usual manner. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
