Hi Students and Parents,

For our field trip to Ogden Nature Center, We will be meeting at Picnic grove (not at the visitor center or the education building). Picnic grove will be a great place for us to have lunch, and will be the area where the bulk of our planting and seeding will take place.

Please follow this link to see a map.

Also students might want to bring work gloves if they have them, and a bottle of water. They should also be reminded to wear sunscreen as it might get sunny.

We are excited to announce the schedule for the upcoming Patterns Intersession.  There will be no regular classes, but will be an alternate schedule that allows the students to celebrate what they have been studying for the past 5 weeks.  Grades lock on the 17^th of March, so students can relax and enjoy a variety of activities.  There is a We-Join-In for the students to use to sign up for their preferred classes.  Please only sign up for yourself.  If there are two of you signed up in two different places for the same period (by your error or by a well-intentioned friend) both slots will be deleted.

Note: Sign up for 4 classes on Tuesday

Sign up for 2 classes on the day you are at the school
