In order to have time for a scheduled lunch time, it usually is necessary to stay
the entire 3 hours during high volume days in the spring. If you are using a district
bus, please check to see when the bus must be back in the district.
In 1-2 sentences, introduce your group to us, including any special needs, abilities, or interests, and/or what makes your class unique.
