HW

Good morning,

You are smart.

You are kind.

You are hard working.

You are wonderful.


I will see you on July 5th at the Main Site. 


Until then, go to the park, eat balanced meals, drink lots of water, do something nice for somebody else and don't tell anyone.

For those of you who did not come today, you missed out.  We only have so many days and none of them are promised.  You let your class down. FOMO.



PARENTS/ GUARDIANS: If you have any questions or comments please feel free to comment on the bottom of this page, or call me. I will reply as soon as possible. I look forward to your comments.  

Love,
Ms. Betsy
