There will be no Grizzly Growl next week as we head into fall break! 🍂 There is no school Thursday or Friday, so enjoy the long weekend, take in the beautiful fall colors, and make some special memories with family and friends. We hope you have a relaxing and fun fall break, Grizzlies!
As always, thank you for supporting our wonderful school community. Please reach out anytime with questions or feedback.
Warmly,
