Welcome back to school!

I hope each of you had a restful and blessed holiday. I certainly enjoyed my break but we have to return to the business of learning tomorrow. I hope you all had a chance to see our first attempt at the movie business. Again thank you for allowing us to use your cameras. We hope to follow up with a more polished effort on our next project.

Parents please make sure your child has the supplies they need as by now rulers may missing pens and pencils. Just check with your child to make sure they have what they need at school.

Look forward to seeing you all tomorrow.
