Please take a few minutes to visit https://bit.ly/3qK4TUq to learn about the upgrades Hutchings would see if the bond is approved.

We celebrate birthdays with non-edible treats in 2nd grade due to numerous allergies! Items like pencils, erasers, and small trinkets are great items for treats! I will still make sure we sing and make your child's day special. Thank you for your cooperation!
