Our Elementary PE classes had their water day! What a beautiful week to enjoy a fun activity! The students had a BLAST!
A heartfelt thank you to all of the staff and students for making me feel so special with an early Birthday surprise. Being with all of you makes this 80 year old stay young. I look forward to spending many more years with all of you and watching all you kids grow into amazing young adults. May you all have a wonderful summer and I will see you all in the fall.
Love Grandma Mary Evens
