IMPORTANT  MESSAGE: 

Due to the high number of positive Covid-19 cases currently, our administration is asking that you please take the time to fill out this survey about getting At Home Rapid Antigen tests in the event that your child/ren needs them. We thank you in advance. 

 

Also, I want to be sure to express a huge thank you to those of you who were able to send in baby wipes and/or Clorox-type wipes.  It is very appreciated as we are trying our best to keep our room as clean and germ-free as possible.
