For the last day of school tomorrow, Gruening's Anchored4Life Club is getting us summer-ready! 🍦

If your student would like to buy a cold treat during the Outdoor Activity part of tomorrow, make sure they bring some cash with them!

Our final three ⭐ Students of the Week ⭐ for this school year are Yeidiliz Gallagher, Hunter Brooks, and Paxson Burningham!

Ms. Anania says, “Yeidiliz is a super hardworking and determined student who is an amazing friend and bright and bubbly too!”

Ms. Barringer says, “Hunter is a great student! He also is friendly and kind. He has an outgoing personality that makes everyone around him feel comfortable.”

The Front Office Staff says, “We have loved having Paxson as our 6th period Office Aide! He is always ready to help with whatever is needed, is always smiling, and is always making us laugh. Thank you for all that you do for us, Paxson!”

Way to go Yeidiliz, Hunter, and Paxson!

Didn't get a chance to purchase a yearbook? There's still time!

Starting today, your student can bring $35 (exact cash only!) to the MPR to purchase a yearbook. After the morning bell, students can go to Mrs. Mary's office during the day to purchase a yearbook.

Few Details:
- This is on a first come, first served basis.
- Students will be able to purchase yearbooks through Wednesday morning or until all yearbooks have been purchased.
- Once we are out of yearbooks, we're out!

*All yearbooks, including the ones that are purchased Monday-Wednesday, will be distributed on Thursday, May 21st.*

Don't forget to read through this week's newsletter!

We share details about Monday's locker clean-out, the plan for distributing yearbooks, and the last day of school schedule.

Have a great weekend! 🐎
