Hello Dunham Families,
Welcome back from Spring Break! It has been great to see all of the kids again, each one of them brightens our campus. We had a very busy week this week, including an awards assembly today. Congratulations to all of our students of the month and to all of our upper graders who joined the Million Word Club!
On Wednesday, April 20, we will be taking class pictures first thing in the morning. Please wear green! There is no charge for the class picture, therefore there is no order form. Please be to school on time, there are no make-ups or retakes.
Superhero Spirit Day is rescheduled for April 27.
Take care and have a fantastic weekend,
Daniel Hoffman
Superintendent / Principal
