THANK YOU TIMES A MILLION
Thank you so much to everyone who picked up helping hands at conferences and donated items to our classroom. The wipes will come in the most handy as we have had so many students out with strep, stomach flu, etc. Mrs. Sorenson and I have been doing our best to get everything sanitized at the end of each day and hoping to not spread as many germs. I hope that everyone gets lots of rest over winter break and comes back healthy and ready to jump right back into learning. Thank you so much for a wonderful first trimester! I look foward to seeing everyone back at school on Thursday, January 2nd! Please feel free to cotnact me over break if you need anything. Thanks! Happy Holidays!
