This summer we had Marissa Grimes complete her Gold Star Project (Girl's Scout) at our school. She has cleaned up the Native Garden and has added two benches and is working on creating some individual green house covers for our garden boxes. This weekend James Baird will be rebuilding our benches in our outdoor garden for his Eagle Scout Project.

I want you to know that I think we had an exciting sixth year together. You are an amazing staff and I feel fortunate to be able to work with you. I am excited about our new year, our new teachers, staff and just being back!!
The 2017/2018 school year promises to be another great year. We will continue to work on our Ag/Tech focus for the upcoming school year. We will also continue to support our efforts of being an NEU school. As a staff we will work together to learn NGSS and Common Core. I know that through our continued hard work, we will see our students grow academically and socially.
The school calendar has been approved and the teacher work days are August 14th and August 15th, and the students will arrive on August 16th. The school will be open for you to pick up your keys, August 7th. We have been working very hard to ensure that your rooms are ready.
Have a super rest of the summer and I will see you on August 10th.
