Then e-mail your relatives in Ohio and Minnesota about it (be sure to include pictures) just so they got the idea.

2. Parents, please be aware that today is a minimum day for your kids in the , which means they get out of school at 12:53 p.m. This is because of parent-teacher conferences all week. The middle schoolers only have early days Monday and Tuesday.
