Headphones
You do not need to purchase new headphones for next year. Your child's headphones will be passed along
to the second grade teachers. They will
be sorted & placed in the correct classroom in late August once class lists
are done.
Our chicks are due to hatch on Tuesday. Our technology department is setting up a camera on Mrs. Hull’s and Miss Tracy’s incubators. I will send you the link as soon as I receive it so you can watch them at home.
