Enjoy Your Memorial Day Weekend!
I hope everyone enjoys the beautiful weather they are forecasting for the weekend! I am sure there will be many activities filling our days, but let's also remember why we have the extra day off from school - to honor those men and women of the armed forces who died while serving our country.
