Our 4th graders are really doing great things!! To give you an idea, here are a few things we are recognizing them for!
Thirteen 4th grade students finished a Kindness challenge in February. Each of them completed 16 acts of Kindness and turned in their charts. Today they received their Kindness tokens and were recognized! Also, more 4th graders have completed their first 100 hours in the
#1000hoursoutside Challenge for 2020! Keep up the good work!
Our phone system is currently down. A fiber optic line was cut near Ridgway causing the outage. If you need to contact the school, you can do so via email. Office secretaries and staff members email addresses can be found on the app and school website.
