Mr. Whitton’s Weekly Update May 25-29, 2026

Friendly Reminders & Updates

  • Seven Sacred Teachings – The last of our seven sacred teachings for May/June is Truth (Turtle) 
  • Reschedued! School Council
    • Our next meeting is scheduled for MONDAY MAY 25 at 6:00pm. 
    • We need 8 additional volunteers for our June 2 and 3 Casino. If we do not find them in the next 1-2 days, our Casino will be cancelled, and Cecil Swanson will not be able to apply for a Casino for the next several years. This would mean less technology, increased cost to families for field trips, and fewer additional learning items. Please contact our school council email at cecilswanson43@gmail.com immediately if you can volunteer. Thank you!
  • Volunteer Tea May Friday May 29 at 11:00am - If you have volunteered this year, please join us for our Thank You event next Friday! We will have some thank you's from students, as well as coffee and light snacks. Thanks Volunteers!
