Dear Poplar Tree Families,

What a wacky week! We were so excited to have our students back in school even if just for a shortened day. We could tell by the smiles on their faces that they were happy to see their friends and teachers! 

We are looking forward to hopefully a full week of school next week!

We hope everyone was able to enjoy the snow and stays safe and warm this weekend!

Sue Andujar, Principal

Amy Alley, Assistant Principal
