Happy Holidays!
As we begin Winter Break, we should also be preparing for the Winter Weather Storm coming this week. The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm Warning in effect from Thursday (12/22) through Saturday. This warning includes below-freezing temperatures, dangerous winds, and snow. While our students will be away on break, we are still thinking about their safety.
Here are some safety tips for playing in the snow over break AFTER the storm has passed.
We wish you all a safe and relaxing holiday season. We look forward to seeing the kids back in 2023.
The 5th Grade Winter Band Concert will be at 6 p.m. tomorrow (12/20) at Riddle Elementary School. Wear your festive holiday gear along with our musicians to celebrate a successful semester of music making!
Get ready! Winter Break starts Thursday, December 22 and students will not return to school until Tuesday, January 3, 2023. Teachers will return on Monday, January 2nd for Teachers Institute.

Ms. Ames and Mrs. Hoenes' 3rd grade classes at Williams Elementary recently read "Balloons Over Broadway". The book is about the Macy's Thanksgiving day parade. The students then designed and created their own "balloons" for our very own "Famous Amous Parade" through the office.
