Also exciting: on Friday afternoon of next week we'll be having our seasonal TAG Battle. On Friday morning we hope that all students will join us for cozy times at the school or a fun skate with "The Grinch" at Oakbank Arena. Schedules for that morning will be made based on student interest. That means we'll need to know if you'd like to join us as soon as possible. Student skaters will walk to the arena with their skates, mittens and helmets at a scheduled time. Students staying at the school will participate in cozy winter activities. If you'd like to be put on the schedule to go for a skate please see Ms. Pinkowski and Ms. Sward in the art room at 12 noon today. You will receive a form that needs to be returned to the school by Tuesday, December 16th. Thank You
