Thumos Thursday
Next Thursday, April 16 will be Silly Hat Day! Time to get crafty and creative. We look forward to seeing what students come up with for this festive day.
Baby Trout
Thanks to Ms.Kathy and her daughter, the trout are being well cared for and are awaiting their release. We learned that we are one of the few schools in the area that have not released their trout. Yay, Ms. Kathy! Ms. Kathy is staying in close communication with NM Game and Fish as well as the Truchas Chapter of Trout Unlimited who will guide Ms. Kathy on the release of the trout. We are hopeful to be able to film the release for all to see!
