Reminder – No school Monday for Victoria Day!

Thank you to our PAC and all the families who supported the Glow Dance this week. The kids seemed to have a blast and connected to many of the oldies played that night.  A huge thanks to all the families that helped set up and take down as you made our custodian’s job so much easier.  These events really do bring the village together, thanks for your support!
