Today is Friday, April 3rd, and it is an A Day for everyone!

1:30 dismissal for Spring Break!

Our 6th graders are working hard in their performance groups so that their "Journey Across Time" on Friday will be enjoyable for our parents and guests! Today and tomorrow they will put finishing touches on their costumes and performances. Please join us from 12:00-1:00 this Friday, April 3rd. Students may leave with their parents after the performances, because we have a 1:30 dismissal for spring break.

Students, we are reminding you that if you are to work with a teacher at lunch, you should go to their room FIRST. You will go to lunch after you are done working. You may only work with a teacher with their permission.

Cell phones are to be used in the main office before school, at lunch, or after school Phones should not be visible or heard except when they are being used in the main office.

Mrs. Ostermeier will put the track schedule on her classroom website. Please check it in addition to the daily announcements.

Spring Pictures will be taken on THURSDAY, APRIL 17 starting at 8:00. There is no form to pre-pay. You get to see the pictures before you purchase them.

There are several opportunities on Mrs. Heyen's table in the hallway. Some are offered by the high schools (cheerleading clinics), the Illinois State Museum, and UIS. Please stop by the table and take advantage of these activities.
