Good morning- Welcome back. I hope you had a wonderful April break! If you have not done so, please schedule your x-block activities ASAP. Welcome back to our Costa Rican travelers. As a reminder, we have students and staff still in Europe. They fly home this evening and will return to school tomorrow. I am looking forward to hearing about the many adventures.  Please take a minute to review the Educator Evaluation information.
