Thanksgiving Lunch!
Principal's CornerGreetings,
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and a chance to rest. The next few weeks are filled with many activities so keep checking the school website for details. Again, thank you for all your help and support.
I also wanted to let you know that your children will be bringing home a magazine provided by the Georgetown Police Department either today or tomorrow. The magazine is about drug abuse and has some really good articles in it.
Take care and God bless,
Dan Mardell
