Christmas Tree Decorating
A group of parent volunteers have put up our Christmas tree in the Idea Lab. Now it's time to decorate. Students will be invited by grade to make crafts over the lunch hour in the Idea Lab.
Please note that this is optional for students who choose to participate. There will be reminders in the daily announcements.
Our tentative date to make a decoration is Tuesday, Dec. 6th.
