EVENTS TOMORROW, WEDNESDAY THE 24TH, IS A  WALKING WEDNESDAY LINK TO MAP of the Walking School bus routes and times. Some teams are planning to try and get everyone out this week of the Walking Wednesday contest.  Is there a plan for your team?   Notice: The last date of the Walking Wednesday Contest is next week MAY 31st. Students must sign in on Wednesdays to earn credit for your team. BE SURE TO HAVE YOUR WALKING CONTEST TALLY SHEETS UPDATED BY THE END OF THE SCHOOL DAY THIS FRIDAY (the last day of the walking path lap contest).  THANK YOU. HELP LOCATE BALLS AND FRISBEES MISSING FROM  THE RECESS STORAGE SHED Perhaps you know where some of the basketballs, footballs and frisbees have gone to? About 20% of what we had remains. Please bring back the stray equipment to the shed so that everyone can have a chance to use them.   Much appreciated. This is what we started with. This is what we have now for balls.
