How was school today?


Happy Tuesday!

Thank you so much for taking the time to discuss all of your girls' progress on Conference Day. It was a pleasure to brag about all of your daughters' hard work!

Ever wonder why the question, "How was school today?" doesn't elicit the appropriate response?

Check out this link for some ways to better ask that question.

As always, please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Thanks for all your continued support,
Ms. Sabrio

-Low-sugar/high- fiber cereal
- Oatmeal
- Pasta
- Whole-grain rice
- Whole-grain crackers
- Whole-wheat flour

- Healthy snacks

Thank you for your continued generosity!
