We have had so, so much fun with distance learning these last couple of months! It's been a weird end of the year but we are so thankful for our students who were able to join us for all the fun and learning! We did everything from reading music books to juggling, planting strawberry plants to writing about our favorite specials moments, drawing zentangles and cityscapes and laughing a whole lot! Thank you to our students for bringing so much joy into our specials meetings!

Don't forget today is our last day of specials meetings and we want to see you! 3rd-5th grade meets at 10am (code 35specials) and PreK-2nd meets at 11 (code pk2specials)! We can't wait to see you!!!! ❤️

Today in art we learned what it means to be zen and we each created our own zentangles! -Ms.Neff

It's Monday and you know what that means! Specials meetings! Today we are creating art! You'll need white paper (or lined if that's what you have), a pencil, and a black marker if you have one! See you soon! -Ms. Neff

This week we will focus our spirit week on saying thank you to a host of individuals who have helped our students, families , staff and communities weather the storm that came with COVID-19.
