Friendly Reminder: As we head into the final stretch of the school year, please take a moment to check your student’s lunch account balance and make any needed payments before the last day of school.
Taking care of negative balances now helps our cafeteria wrap up the year smoothly and keeps the lunch line running like a well-oiled pizza conveyor belt. 🍕✨

Mrs. Wixom‘s 3rd graders read about the history of the first chocolate chip cookie and decided to go in search of the best recipe ever! Our Blackbirds submitted their favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe, and the class chose three to bake. They teamed up with Ms. Litogot’s Culinary Arts class to make and bake the cookies. It was a SWEET collaboration! 🍪
