There are so many great pics of your campers on there!)

We finished our district writing test this week. Ask your campers all about their stories. On Tuesday, all of them brought home a copy of the assessment samples and you talked with them about each one. Cant wait to see how everyone did!

Upland Hills Farm: We will be furthering our Science/Social Studies lessons by taking a trip to the farm!
