| Locker cleanout scheduled for May 28 Please note that we have scheduled locker cleanouts to take place the afternoon of Wednesday, May 28. Many lockers have taken on a life of their own and accumulated many items that need to be taken home. We are asking you to please supply your child with a bag to carry home excess jackets, shoes, sweatshirts, lunch boxes etc. on Wednesday, May 28. Also a reminder from you to your child to bring home these items vs throwing them away would be great! Thank you. |
