Everyone needs a little extra warmth this time of year! ❄️
Although we have an e-learning day today, we know there are still many chilly days ahead.
We are so grateful for our hardworking team members who are outside every morning and afternoon, making sure our students enter and exit the building safely no matter how cold it gets. To help keep them warm, we will be collecting Hot Hands or any type of hand warmers for staff members who have bus or other outdoor duties.
If you are able to help, please drop donations off in the main office or send them to school with your Viking. We truly appreciate the continued support from our Meister family as we count down the days until warmer weather! 💚
