WHOLE MILK IN SCHOOL

Whole milk is back! Our current dairy supplier has been able to provide us with white whole milk, and we're confident that it will be consistent for the remainder of the school year. If kids would like to purchase whole milk, they should select the red carton in the cafeteria line.

TIE-DYE IN ART CLUB
The High School Art Club was excited to tie-dye! For many of them, it was their first time working in this medium. The club members with experience shared what had worked for them in the past, and then we got to work! The students had a blast creating t-shirts and tote bags with bold and bright colors.

A big thank you to the Greenville Education Foundation, which helped make this collaboration and fun activity possible. At the end of the meeting, the students took home what they created. Several of the club members said it was the best activity we did all year. If you see a student with a tie-dye bag or shirt, ask if they made it!
