A Note from Mrs. Danley...

Dear Parents,
We have had a great start back to
school after the break. I hope that
everyone is rested after the Monday
off and ready to go. Please continue to
encourage your child to come to school
prepared and always do their best each
and every day. We still have a great deal to cover between now and
May! Thank you for all of your support and for always being so gracious in sending in items that we need for our school activities.
WISH LIST: pop tabs and box tops
Mrs. Danley :)
