Blue Hour Kickoff!!
This afternoon, students participated in a variety of outdoor games: flag football, ultimate frisbee, drawing with sidewalk chalk, walking the track, and kickball!
A special shoutout to Kona Ice for coming and being part of our first Blue Hour of the 23-24 school year!
Just a friendly reminder - no smoking/vaping and no pets are allowed on school property. Thank you for your cooperation!
We need your help!! This year we are trying something new with the student's extra blue bucks that go in a raffle at Blue Hour (formally Eagle Hour). Instead of always giving coupons we wanted to give out really good prizes. We created an Amazon wishlist with items we thought the students would like to get as prizes. If you have other things, please don't hesitate to send them in. As always we are so appreciative of the communities support and eagerness to help! https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/26FG4ESYZ0N8F?ref_=wl_share
