Thursday Offers

Families,

We have staff members who are less impacted that are able to help out tomorrow:

1. There will be lunch, board games and tutoring at Mickey’s Place tomorrow, starting at noon for Gr 7-12 students.

2. If someone needs childcare, let us know and we can put you in touch with someone able to help.

3. The Baptist church has frozen meals and ability to assist any evacuated families who could use a hand right now.

We’re thankful to be part of a community that pulls together through tough times!

Gratefully,
Kristin

Fire Near School

Dear Families,

As you may be aware, there is a fire near the school. At this time, the school is fine, though we do not know exactly what to expect. We are thankful for a wide area around it.

We are praying that the school and all the homes in the area will be safe. We will send out an update regarding school tomorrow when we know more.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Kristin
