Today is Thursday, January 7th, 2021.  

A reminder that a phone call to transportation is necessary by noon today if you will be riding the bus for the first time this year, starting with our return to face-to-face schooling on Monday.

Here’s an interesting winter science fact for you:

Question:  Just how wet does it have to be in order for it to snow?

Answer: A LITTLE WATER CAN ADD UP TO A LOT OF SNOW. The air doesn’t need to be super moist to produce impressive amounts of snow. Unlike plain rainfall, a bank of fluffy snow contains lots of air that adds to its bulk. In fact, what would have been only an inch of rain in the summer equals about 10 inches of snow in the colder months!
