What a great week! Black History Dress Up Days, an AMAZING Black History Month Assembly AND a Rock Paper Scissors competition with our staff & students! Enjoy your well deserved Mid-Winter Break Huskies! See you Tuesday!
If you couldn't make it to yesterday's focus groups, there is still time to participate in the superintendent search survey online at portageps.org. You will find the link at the top of the home page. The survey is open until midnight on Sunday, March 2nd.
Our last Black History Month Dress Up Day is TOMORROW! As we gear up for our assembly in the morning...lets finish the week PACKstrong!
As always, remember that the purpose of dress up days is to bring us closer into community with one another and that all participating students should have outfits that are appropriate for school, in compliance with the school dress code, and in good taste.
