Students need to replace school supplies through the year as they are used up. We have nearly gone through our supply of pencils and highlighters for them to borrow.

Don’t forget to send in your box tops! Mrs. Miller has sheets for the students to tape 10 box tops on and turn in. If you send your box tops in, we will get them on the sheets for you!
