The Learn & Play Bus was designed to provide play-filled experiences which help children to learn and grow. Materials have been selected to spark a child’s interest and encourage them to explore and learn. See below for their schedule!
We have made a schedule change to make up for 2 of the 3 snow days. Monday, April 13, 2020, is now a student attendance day and Friday, May 22, 2020, is now the last day of school. All school calendars now reflect this change.
It's National School Counseling Week and we want to give a shout out to all our school counselors! Thank you for providing our students with the academic, college and career help, and social-emotional development they need.
