Just a reminder that there is NO SCHOOL today!
We finished out our Red Ribbon Week with Red Day, and our very own election. Our Enrichment Committee put together a polling center so that our students could experience their voting rights they will receive when they get older. After voting, everyone was giving an I voted sticker and signed our "We Voted" poster.
Just a reminder that there is NO SCHOOL Monday (11/4) and Tuesday (11/5) for Election Day! Enjoy your long weekend!
Still a couple more items needed from the school store. If you haven't donated and would like to help out. Click the link below:

PAJAMA Day was a GREAT way to kick off Red Ribbon Week! Tomorrow is "Team Up Against Drugs", so wear your favorite sports jersey or sports gear!
