November is Native American Heritage Month. Some well known inventions by Native Americans include anesthetics and topical pain relievers, corn, and kayaks. But some lesser known contributions include syringes, cable suspension bridges, hammocks, baby bottles, and mouthwash.
Here's a reminder about the virtual pivot schedule for schools and district offices next week. Hope you have a great weekend!

Interim grade reports for K-2 were sent home or emailed if your student is virtual. Interim grade reports for 3-5 are online at HAC. Monday and Tuesday all students and teachers are virtual. This is a time to get missing assignments turned in. Students know how to log in and have virtual time with their teachers. Thank you for your support!
