Happy New Year!

I hope you all had a wonderful and restful break!  We are back and working hard!  A great big thank you for all of the supplies you donated to the pediatric wing at St. Luke's Hospital. They were thrilled with the  coloring books and crayons and we appreciate your generosity!  We will be doing 1 more community service project in the spring. 

Some of you may have heard that Vicki Edwards, one of our therapy dog handlers, had a brain aneurysm before Thanksgiving. I went to visit Vicki over the holidays. She is still in the hospital. She has a long recovery ahead of her, but is working hard to re-learn how to walk and speak. Please keep her in your thoughts. I'm hoping to have the kids make some more cards for her. She has the last batch hanging in her hospital room and they really brightened her day.

Here are a few dates to remember this month:
We will be wrapping up state projects here at school. They are due
