testing of all potential drinking water sources in the school. The results of the water
testing, including any corrective actions and retesting needed, will be posted in a public follow-up notice—typically 7-14 workdays after the water samples have been submitted to the lab.

Mrs. Johnston's 1st grade class and Mrs. Murphy's Fundamentals of Fashion and Interior Design class partnered up this quarter for a fun learning project. The 1st graders designed their own teddy bear, ornament, or elf. Mrs. Murphy's stuednts turned them into each student's very own "stuffie"! We took a trip to HHS to meet the class and receive our one-of-a-kind keepsakes! They were AMAZING and we were SO EXCITED! ❤️💚❤️ This is a wonderful project that all first graders will get to participate in. We can't wait to see what our friends make the next two quarters 😍.
