We are still taking orders for kids picnic table for just $75.

Order one today and make your backyard the place to be. Nobody wants to be left table-less at the next cookout!

I spoke with Charlie Hutfles (Everest AD) this morning on the conditions at the golf course and with this latest round of rain we will have to cancel the CC meet schedule for tomorrow 10/1 at Mission Lake Golf Course. The risk of injury to a runner is too high and it does not look like the rain will let up until sometime tomorrow.

Unfortunately it does not look like we will be able to reschedule this and again I apologize.

Learning Beyond the Pages!

Our sixth graders wrapped up our reading of Schooled by Gordon Korman with a fun and colorful culminating activity—tie-dyeing T-shirts! 👕🎨

As we read the novel, students explored important themes such as fitting in vs. staying true to yourself, bullying, empathy, friendship, and accepting others for who they are.
