Remember to set your clocks forward one hour on Sunday!
Absolutely Incredible Kids Day is on Thursday, March 17. This holiday encourages adults to write a young person a note — let them know just why they’re so amazing! Our thoughtful words can spark a life-changing journey for a child. Please consider writing a message to your child on this day. You can include it in their school lunch, put it in a sealed envelope and have your child bring it to me, or send it through e-mail to be printed or shown to your child on this day.Reminders for Friday, March 11th
