Website Issues Resolved

Thursday, November 6th, 2008

Thank you for your patience.  We had an issue with our website host provider that took down the site for a time.  Obviously, this has been resolved.  The Fundraising page will be updated shortly to refect changes in the Cash For Class Program and other fundraisers that were up to date before the outage but were not able to be recovered.  My appologies for any inconvenience.

Teacher Blogs

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

All of our teachers have blogs. They are listed in the sidebar and are available for you and your children to see news and assignments pertaining to their class. They will be updated regularly. We encourage you to read them from time to time. If you use an RSS reader, like Google Reader or Bloglines, you can even subscribe to them and be updated as soon as new posts are published.

Here’s how one video producer describes the process.
