The Week of August 19th

Dress Down August 31st
There will be a $1 dress down on August 31st for Oatland Island. Students are encouraged to dress like their favorite plant or animal! All proceeds will be donated to help the recovery effort at Oatland Island. 

Homework Options
We will send home information this week regarding homework options for your student. All students should already be reading nightly. Please be on the lookout for more information regarding these options!

Continent Boxes
Thank you for your kind donations to our continent boxes! These boxes are really coming along due to your generosity. If you come across any items from any of the continents in the future we will gladly except them!  

Volunteering

Are you interested in working with our students this year? We could use your help with science experiments, reading with students, and doing art projects. If you have a special talent that you would like to share with our community, please send us an email and fill out an Operation Beacon volunteer form.
