Next week is Red Ribbon Week! ❤️ Be sure to check out that section of the Peek at the Week for all the details about our fun dress-up days!
We will also have some special community heroes joining us each morning to greet students as they arrive at school. 🚔🚑🚒 Don’t be alarmed if you see a police car, ambulance, or fire truck in our car rider line! Our community heroes are simply stopping by to welcome our very own Highland Heroes and help us celebrate Red Ribbon Week!
We hope you have a wonderful weekend. We can’t wait to see everyone back in the HIVE on Monday!
