Congratulations to our 8th grade girls basketball for defeating Constantine 30-29 to finish the season with 3 straight wins. The Rams got off to a slow start and trailed 8-0 early in the game. They rallied to take the lead at halftime. Constantine came back in the 4th quarter to take a 29-25 lead with :53 remaining. But having the right mindset proved important for the ladies as the scored the final 5 points, highlighted by a 3 point shot with :12 to win. As discussed in the locker room after the game, if they can remember 1 thing from this season it would be NEVER QUIT, play until
the final whistle. This is true in basketball but in life also ❤️🏀 Proud of the girls and look forward to watching them grow over the next 4 years.
SCHOOL WALK INFORMATION
Wednesday, March 24
If you are a K-5 student we would love to have you join us tomorrow for a school walk. Exercise has huge benefits both physically and emotionally as we work through this difficult time. We will meet at the Primary at 11:00 and walk on the KVRT for an hour. Masks will be required and social distancing is expected. An adult must be with your child, no drop-offs. It’s a beautiful walk. If you have a zoom class meeting during that time it’s recommended that you attend your zoom meeting.

Our goal was to move to full face to face instruction starting Feb. 15th. However, we want to keep students and staff safe to the best of our ability, and we have some safety items that will not be in until the end of next week or early the following week.
