We are making progress with summer cleaning. There is a lot of work involved when preparing our school for another school year. All furniture is removed from the rooms so floor work can be done. Some floors are scrubbed and others are completely stripped before new wax is laid. The last couple pictures show rooms with fresh wax. They looks so slick! We are very thankful for our custodians and the work they do to prepare our schools for another year of learning! Thank you Ryan, Alissa, Larry, Rebecca, Daryl, and Parker!
Please check our Facebook page for the 21-22 school supply list. Supply list will also be available in our webpage, at Dollar General, Bowling Green and Mexico Walmart.
