Snow Days!

     So far we have missed a total of ten snow days. We have already made up one snow day, which was Presidents’ Day. Now we have four more to make up so the student will be in school on Monday, June 1 through Thursday, June 4^th. The last day of school will be on Thursday, June 4^th. We have missed the maximum days we will have to make up so if we miss any more days due to inclement weather, our last day will be Thursday, June 4^th.

Congratulations!

   Sean B. has been selected as one of the winners of the annual Richland County Third Grade Coloring Contest sponsored annually by Richland Newhope to mark Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month in March.  Sean will be treated to an awards pizza luncheon!

Electronics

     Please remind your students that if they bring a phone or an electronic devise to school that they must follow the school rules. They are not allowed to use their phones during school and they must be silenced during school hours. The students are not allowed to get on the internet with their devises; they should have appropriate games downloaded. If the students are caught playing inappropriate games then they will lose their privilege to have their electronic devises at school.

If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks!

Dropping Off Students

     Please do not drop students off before 8:20 on school days or 10:20 when there is a two hour delay. There is no supervision until that time.
