I would like to apologize to anyone who did not receive the previous notification about school remaining in session until 3:29 this afternoon.

Good Morning,
The "Good News Call" today goes out to Kindergartener, Eve Meyerink. Eve was nominated for the Good News Call by our cook, Kathryn Harrington. Eve noticed that someone had dropped paper towels on the floor and had not picked them up. She proceeded to tell Kathryn that she would pick up the mess herself. Thank you, Eve, for displaying the Panther Way Expectation of Responsibility by helping us to keep our building clean. You are a role model for everyone. We appreciate your help!
Here is a picture of sweet Eve making here call!
