All this year we will be celebrating the success of our students and teachers both inside and out of the classroom. Our first #CelebrateSuccess is a unique idea by Ms. Lithgow and Ms. Bierbauer to encourage their students daily. Check out the inspirational sayings on the desks. Thanks for your inspiration! #KidsAreOurCustomers #CelebrateSuccess

As always we encourage interaction on our social media accounts and website. We've established a few guidelines or best practices this year to protect our students. In other words, just be KIND! #KidsAreOurCustomers
