Today our school was treated to a performance by the Johnston School
of Irish Dance. Several other students in our building, who attend other Irish
dancing schools, also participated in a couple of the dances. I'm sorry I had to miss it - I heard the students loved it! Thank you to
Karen Augello for organizing this assembly!
Last week Officer Brand presented the last of the grade level CODE assemblies. We will have one more school-wide assembly at the end of the year. The students have enjoyed these assemblies and have learned a great deal about a variety of topics, from personal safety to bullying.
