Octavien with a beautiful dimensional lumber desk that he built. This "rustic X" style has become quite popular in the last few years. He did a nice job and completed this project in a timely fashion. Desks are always useful projects to build. Good job, Ocatavien!
Si no aprovechamos todos los días de inclemencias del tiempo que
incorporamos en el calendario este año,
¡¡LOS ESTUDIANTES Y EL PERSONAL TENDRÁN UN DÍA LIBRE EXTRA!!
Lo que eso significa es que si no tenemos un día de “no escuela” debido al clima entre AHORA y el 8 de MARZO...
TODOS TENDRÁN DESCUENTO EL 2 DE ABRIL.
If we do not use all the inclement weather days that we built into the calendar this year, STUDENTS & STAFF WILL HAVE AN EXTRA DAY OFF!!
What that means is that if we do not have a “no school” day because of the weather between NOW and MARCH 8th…EVERYONE WILL GET APRIL 2ND OFF.
