What a BEAUTIFUL day we had today! Almost 70 degrees on February 26th???? Many of our teachers took advantage of the weather had their class spend extra time outdoors doing a math walk or read-a-loud on the lawn.
Tomorrow will snap us all back to normal with much cooler weather and the return of South Dakota wind. We may even see some flakes of snow. Please send your children in proper coats as we expect to go outside for recess.
