Have a wonderful winter break Today marks the end of the second quarter and the beginning of winter break for our district. We look forward to seeing all our students back on Monday, Jan. 6; until then please note that all our buildings will be closed to the public and many staff will be on vacation. The next district newsletter will be sent on Jan. 3. We want to give a big shout out to our amazing custodial team who will be doing a deep clean in both the elementary and junior/senior high school over break. We wish all our Green Bear families a wonderful winter break and a Happy New Year. |
