Field Trip Friday Fun!

Dear 2B Families,

We had an amazing Field Trip today! Thank you to the parents who joined us and helped chaperone.

A note about PE...

Greetings families,

Due to various scheduling conflicts, all P.E. classes will take place outside for the next several weeks. As the temperatures heat up, please send a water bottle to school with your child/ren. We will be sure to give students water breaks during P.E. If your child requires sunscreen, please apply it before school starts. Students may also wear a hat (free of pop-culture) during P.E. Feel free to reach out to us with any questions. Have a great day and Go Chargers!

Best regards,
Coach Gethings and Coach Warren
