Updates and Reminders - April 19, 2024
Our first Career Day was a big success! A BIG THANK YOU goes out to all the parents who were able to take some time today to share their careers and experiences with our students. The students and staff enjoyed hearing about the variety of occupations held in our community. Here are some additional updates and reminders as we head into the weekend:
