Dear 2B Families,

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend!  It is hard to believe that we are approaching the last month of school.  Thank you all for your support throughout this year full of change!  The scholars had a wonderful time on the field trip-thank you so much to all of our fantastic volunteers; they kept our kids safe and helped them have an awesome day!

Best,

Mrs. Bowers
