Ms. Diana Flegal, Middle School and High School Deaf Educator, sent us a wonderful sign interpretation from the web of the song "Beautiful" by Christina Aguilera. It was done by a deaf performing arts company called "D-PAN (Deaf Performing Arts Network)." If you would like to watch the performance, you may access it

AWESOME!!!
Spring Break has come and gone. At this time of year, students have a tendency give up on school work. We all get Spring Fever! However, some of the most important parts of the year are still to come. Please be sure your child continues to do homework, attends regularly, and arrives at school on time. We all need to work together to maintain our goals and focus. We want to continue to have a successful year...just as it has been already!
Thank you so much for all your support throughout this year of transition!

Read Across America
We celebrated "Read Across America" March 3-7 with a Dr. Seuss theme. It was his birthday and Mrs. Walters planned some activities around his books and his life. We had a parade to celebrate and classes decorated wagons. Mrs. Walters and Ms. Susan got into the spirit of the week by dressing as Thing 1 and Thing 2! We had fun!!!
Big News!
Bethany's brother, J.D., surprised her at school when he came home from a one-year tour of duty in Iraq. He will be visiting for one month, and then he will go back to finish his service. We are proud of J.D., and we thank him for serving our country!
