Good Evening! I hope everyone had an amazing day! Here are today's announcements in case you missed them. https://youtu.be/UhWPMZPVbuQ Send in your pictures of grit! Today Ms. Jessica asked for everyone to check out examples of grit in nature - the weather wasn't the best, but I hope you were able to enjoy some fresh air. I am currently thinking the snow is pretty gritty - it just won't stay away! Paper packet pick up on Friday, April 24th from 11-12:30 in the K-8 parking lot. We look forward to seeing everyone that has requested a paper packet. If you need a paper packet, please email your teachers or the office. If you have completed a paper packet, take pictures of the work and email them to your teachers. If you need help to submit your work, please let us know. See you for tomorrow's live stream announcements at 8 am! https://stream.meet.google.com...
