Hello Parents,
We certainly enjoyed our visit to Lanark Nature Center. Thank you parents for driving! It was nice to experience an outside classroom with the joys of hiking, catching fish, and identifying forms of plant and animal life!

Our students enjoyed visiting the middle school "classroom cell" this week. They enjoyed seeing cells made with "trash" from home!

Be looking for the "sack pack" adventure book reports displayed in the hall. The students did a fantastic job!
