We're halfway through our first week back at school (not hard to do since it's a short week ;).  After school, 7th grade boys basketball practices, Rubiks Cube Club meets and we have our monthly PAC Meeting.

Back to School Tomorrow (1/9)

Winter Break is almost over... we look forward to seeing you back here bright and early tomorrow morning, that's Tuesday, January 9th, for the start of second semester!  We'll begin our day tomorrow by following our regular Tuesday schedule, which means CORE Plus, followed by blocks 7- 4.  Don't forget to follow your second semester (or 3rd quarter for 6th graders) schedules, which are available to view in Infinite Campus.  See you tomorrow!
