NEWS & NOTES
Playground Update: It was brought to our attention that broken glass was found on our playground over the weekend. The Hartland Police Department was also notified and made aware of the situation. Numerous staff members have spent time picking up pieces of glass by hand throughout this week, but it was determined that additional cleaning measures must be taken to ensure student safety. Out of an abundance of caution, we shut down our playground earlier this week. When weather permits, we will utilize alternative cleaning methods in hopes of reopening this space by this weekend. Student safety remains our highest priority, and we are doing everything we can to ensure the playground is a safe space for all children. We appreciate your family's patience and understanding.
Music Class Update: Our Music Teacher Mrs. Revers would like to share some information about upcoming changes to music class for the next few months. Please take a moment to read her letter to families.
