Picture Day on Thursday

“Hats on Day” on Friday
On this Friday, September 18th, students will be allowed to wear hats to school by making a donation towards the Foundation for Children with Cancer. This foundation was created to support and raise awareness for children who are battling cancer. Students can add to the fun by decorating their hat!

The Future is in Our Hands!
