Brock's Got Talent
Re-auditions are this week.  It's shaping up to be an entertaining show on April 8th.

Evacuation Drill and Whole School Photo 
We have tentatively booked the school district's drone to come on Wednesday to take a whole school photo.  We will begin with an evacuation drill to get everyone onto the field before lunch and then gather together on the back field to take the photo.  If it's raining or if there's too much wind, the drone cannot come out to play.  Stay tuned.
