What a great class trip we had !!   The kids were great and I think we all returned exhausted.

VOC. QUEST only on chapter 18....not sure if you received that info or not from your student.  This will be on Tues. the 26th.

I feel sure the information made it home that there will be no school this Friday the 29th in observance of Good Friday, since we did not have any snow days this year.  :  )

We will start a new chapter 19 this week but really work hard after Springbreak.

Have a GREAT SPRINGBREAK and a blessed EASTER holiday with your families.
