Our Zumba class demo last week received great feedback

step, and more.

This class is for adults or teens and welcomes everyone of any stamina/ability.
Zumba is flexible in that a novice and a veteran can do the same movement but at
different strenuous levels. If you are interested, please sign up at the Admin Desk.
- Parent on Duty Sign-Up Needed
Not only did familiar faces sign up last Sunday, a couple
of new families also committed to help! Many thanks to these supportive parents!
We strongly hope that every family will take ownership of its role in our community
and treat this sign up as a responsibility to fulfill by signing up three times
during the school year. Main responsibilities include ringing the bell, supervising
the school store, maintaining hallway safety, helping with school activities, all
to benefit our children!
