Dear Families,<\/p>\n
Thank you to all the families who attended conferences last week to celebrate the kids learning and progress! A strong connection between school and home always helps the kids to be more successful. Expect paper report cards to come home the end of this week.<\/p>\n
There is a lot of activities going on in the next couple of weeks so expect a few more portal reminders. Also, anyone visiting the Albion Community Center in the next few weeks should take a moment to check out the Christmas Tree decorations completed by Bobcat and Sasquatch Pods!<\/p>\n
