Fortis Academy Second Grade (M/W) - January 30-February 3, 2023

 Update: I have updated the blog in light of school being canceled.  Please complete everything in red at home.  Everything still in black is optional.

We will have a small Valentine's celebration on Monday, February 13.  More details to come, but if you'd like to get started on Valentines, a list of classmates is below.  Students will need one for each student and a box/bag to collect their Valentines :)
