Celebrating Our Visiting Author!

Today we were so excited to welcome our visiting author, Mr. Darnell!  We enjoyed hearing stories about his childhood in Pike Road, Alabama.

Save the Date!

Tuesday, March 1st at 6:00 pm will be our Parent Informational Meeting for our field trip to Tybee Island! We will meet in Mrs. Thigpin's classroom. The meeting will only last 30 minutes, since some parents may need to attend another meeting on campus for rising 7th/8th graders at 6:30. See you then!
