Just a heads up that I will be absent on Wednesday, 5/18 and Thursday, 5/19 for a 2-day teacher training in Ashburn. The kids and I will have our usual substitute/guest teacher discussion on Monday/Tuesday. I will still be available via email and ClassDojo if any issues arise, but the kiddos will be in good hands with our substitute. If you have any attendance/dismissal changes, please make sure to let the front office know!
