We
have had a lot of absences lately
due to this awful flu.
However, I have many “unexcused absences” recorded because I do
not
get a call or note from the parent.
Please
get in touch if your student is
out.
So many unexcused absences and we
are to notify the courts.
Kitty needs home:
Miss Cole’s kitty needs a home.
Spayed
