Special Announcements

Welcome to Thunder Mountain! I’m sure we will have a great time learning about ancient people.

I would appreciate it if parents/students would bring a box or two of tissues to class..thanks

Although we no longer use stampsheets as a homework incentive, letters will be sent home if a student continuously fails to complete homework assignments.
