One month left!

Only one month left before school starts! Remodeling at the buildings is going well and some of the things from Lohrville have been moved to the new buildings. Last chance to catch up on that summer reading or go on that vacation!

Welcome!

I am Ms. Smith, and I will be teaching technology and Wings/TAG this year. Please check back to the blog to see updated poll questions and information each week.
