Happy Vacation!

Please note that a school supply list was sent home in your Report Cards. Mrs. Hyams is requesting that you have your school supplies labelled and organized for the first day of school, as there is a lot to do on that one day before you travel off to camp.

Thank you for a wonderful year, for your cards, gifts, and well-wishes. I wish you all a wonderful summer! :)
