Our Pre Schoolers had the best time running through Mrs. D's obstacle course as a part of their exercise study yesterday! Both classes had a chance to run the course while our 4th, 5th and 6th Graders cheered them on with hand made posters. It's safe to say everyone had a blast!!










Dear Gator Families-
We are looking to move forward with a Pre K-6th Grade Yearbook this year. It will be put together with our Yearbook Club under the direction of our 6th Grade Teacher, Mrs. Flesch. Since this is the first time we are embarking on this endeavor, please indicate on the Google Form provided if you would be interested in purchasing a yearbook at the end of the year. The cost will be between $10- $15. Your participation will be helpful for us to know how many to order. Thanks in advance!
