At the end of each quarter, we gather all of the items in the Lost and Found and donate them to families in need. This week will be the last opportunity to claim missing items before they are donated.
A shout out to Mrs. Casimiro, Mr. Nixon, and all of our Timberwolf musicians for their wonderful performances at this year’s Bites & Beats event last Friday evening! Our guitar club and school orchestras played some beautiful music for Timberwolf families and the community. It was great to see our students’ progress and our amazing teacher-musicians in action & holiday spirit!
