Jan. 16,  2017

This week we will be setting up the salmon tank for the delivery of the coho salmon eggs next Monday.  Also, we will be filling and wrapping our time capsules that the students will take home at the end of the week.  The capsules will be marked," Open Jan.1, 2027!"  I hope you can put them in a safe place so that you will remember to open them in ten years!
Girls and boys basketball starts this week.  I will be coaching the boys and Sarah Kerrigan will coach the girls.  Practices will be at lunch time.
