Parents and Guardians of Summer School Students:
Due to inclement weather coming on Friday, we will move our water fun to Wednesday afternoon. Therefore, please send your child sunscreen, an extra set of clothes(including underclothes), shoes, and a towel on Wednesday. Do NOT send your child in a swimsuit or with one, a t-shirt and pair of shorts will be fine. We are hoping for a warm, wet day!
