It was great seeing so many families at our family math night last Friday. We had over 100 students and their families playing and learning together - It was fabulous! Thank you to PTA and Mathnasium and to all our families and former students who volunteered to help run stations! We are so thankful that we are able to return to events such as Math Night and look forward to more family activities in the weeks to come.
Monday is our first in school book fair in two years! In school on Monday, May 23rd, students will be able to shop with their class.
