The Team Building Retreat went very well this week and the students all seemed to enjoy it. They especially enjoyed lunch! A big thank you goes out to Mrs. Woo and Mrs. Katyrynuik for preparing, serving, and cleaning up our taco lunch. Another huge thank you goes out to Mrs. Young for doing a fabulous job facilitating the retreat.
The students also enjoying a presentation put on by Crew Ministries on Thursday afternoon this week. They all participated and had fun with the songs and skits.
Show and Save Books were due on Friday. If you have not returned your sample book and/or your order, please do so on Monday so that we can complete this fundraising project as soon as possible.
