Makerspace: Mme Page is collecting old electronics (Hairdryers, VCRs, Printers, DVD Players, etc.). Students love to use the tools to take apart these electronics during makerspace. If you have any you would like to donate, please send them in with students. Thank you.
Powerschool:
Please check your student's powerschool to see how they are doing across all subject areas prior to report cards being released at the end of June. Power school is an important communication tool where teachers are able to share what students need to do to improve. Grades are updated in real time so you have an up-to-date picture of how your students is doing academically.
Learning Commons (Library): Please send your students' library books back to school on their designated Learning Commons day. We will no longer be signing out more books, just collecting books in preparation for end of year. Any overdue notices will be sent home shortly.
