Today is School Bus Driver Appreciation Day! We are so grateful for our drivers. They are integral to the success of this district and our students. They get to know and love our kids in a very special way, and their dedication to student safety and learning is invaluable.

Last week students from Ms. Bennett's third grade class enjoyed watching caterpillars turn into butterflies. On April 17, they released the butterflies. The excitement on their faces was priceless. This was an amazing experience for Ms. Bennett's students.
