Weekly Update - November 4, 2016

Hello Robina Families,

Did you all remember to move your clocks back? I would hate for anyone to miss out on that extra hour of sleep this weekend! As you know we are coming up to a 3 day week -- which means a 4 day weekend for your families! There is no student of the week in the upcoming week and there will be no weekly update. This update will be it until the following week.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THIS WEEK'S STUDENTS OF THE WEEK!!

Congratulations to our Cross Country Team:

Mrs. Kaluza presented certificates to 67 Students who participated in any of 1 - 3 Events. They worked hard and practiced every day at lunch for 3 weeks.
