Camp Edwards Remnants

Hello All - There are many items in the commons and the lost and found that are left over from Camp Edwards. There is a rust colored sleeping bag, many sweatshirts, and various other items. Please check through the items your child brought to Camp Edwards and see if anything is missing. If so, then come to school and check the lost and found to see if they are here at school. Thanks!

School Supplies

Please check with your child to be certain that they have all the school supplies she or he needs at school. Many students do not have pencils and/or a pencil sharpener for his or her desk. Your help with this is greatly appreciated!
