PRINCIPAL'S CORNER

Good Evening Ram Families:

In honor of Bullying Prevention Month and Digital Citizenship Week, which is set for next week, we have combined the two for this week's spirit week. See the flier below for details OR click the link.

Remind students that if they see something, they should say something immediately to an adult. They also should be encouraged to use digital devices and platforms safely.

See additional information below and we look forward to a great week ahead.
