We have had a record-breaking Warrior Week, and part of our record comes from the $5300 we raised during our miracle minute yesterday. This really is an impressive number, and the generous spirit of our warrior community has absolutely floored Jordon's family. A big thank you to Mr. Meyer's class for the most money raised.  Donuts coming your way soon! 

Good morning, Warriors! We’re all enjoying the awesome creativity and effort you have put into Weasley Day.
