We hope you've had a chance to relax and reconnect with family over Spring Break. Just a reminder that students will not return to school until Thursday. Wednesday was changed to a Teacher Work Day by the WCPSS school board to help teachers plan for the transition to Plan A. (The Teacher Work Day on May 13 was removed from the calendar.)
If your child is changing to Plan A or to VA, that change will take effect on Thursday.
We wish you a great week!
Marie, Deb, Sarah, Dana, Lauren

We're ready for spring in the garden beds! Before students left for spring break, we planted seeds in the garden, and the radishes and peas are coming up.
Students will be mulching and planting the garden very soon! Stay tuned!
