What a great first day!!! We had PERFECT ATTENDANCE!!!
If you have supplies to bring in, you have all week to get that taken care of. Reminders will come home on Friday as to what your student still needs to bring in. Priorities include headphones and AVID binder supplies. In addition, you may see a yellow folder come home today. It contains important paperwork that needs to be filled out ASAP and returned in. Other supplies are bonuses and very much appreciated.
Gratefully,
Mrs. Gill
