March 16- March 20

Well, I think we are all slowly getting back healthy. I was glad to see almost everyone back at school. Hopefully, we will get a handle on everything that is going around. We are schedule to take pictures on March 16th. Students are welcome to bring a change of clothes, so they don't have to keep them on all day. There is also a field trip scheduled on March 27th to the State Museum. Once we get a better understanding of how the next few weeks are going to go, I will send you more information about chaperoning if we are still going. If we go, I will definitely need chaperones. I will keep you updated with any changes throughout the week.

Week of March 9 - March 13

Well, another week is over. Thank you for all of the pencils!! I actually received so many donations, I didn't have a chance to write down who they from, but thank you for all of the donations. We definitely needed them, but we did start a new system this week. It's helping them keep up with their pencils more. On another note, I have been wiping down desks with Clorox wipes and spraying daily, so let's hope this keeps us clean. I try to make sure that hands are being washed or at least sanitized after blowing noses and/or sneezing.
