Please note that with MSA around the corner our schedules have been modified a bit to help with 3,4,5 grade. Our specials are now running from 10:55- 11:35 each day until after testing is over. Also packets are going to come home tomorrow with kids as a prep for the TN2 which we will be taking in April (not far off!) so please take the time to do one sheet each night until spring break! Hugs to all and have a good night.
