CALENDAR FOR REMOTE LEARNING: We will continue with four day, in-person learning, and Fridays as a remote learning day for all students during the third nine weeks, which ends March, 26. We will decide in March what our schedule will look like for the last nine weeks, which starts on March 29.
HALLWAY AND CLASSROOM PICTURES: Since you cannot visit our school during the pandemic we thought we would display pictures on the elementary website. Go to the bottom of the elementary page and click, “School Photo Galleries.” There you will find “Fall 2020” and “Christmas 2020” pictures.
FIFTH GRADE QUIZ BOWL: Monday, Jan. 11 is the first Quiz Bowl match. All matches are at Shawnee Middle School.
