K8 Weekly Update 9/26

Good morning,

I hope you all enjoyed your weekend! The fall weather was so refreshing. I wanted to remind you that we have fall break the week of October 10th. However, October 7th is not an early release day.
Congratulations to Mrs. Irrgang and her husband Chris on the arrival of Kallan Christopher Irrgang last Friday! Both baby and mom are doing great!
Mrs. Martin’s surgery went well and she was able to come home on Saturday. She is feeling strong and has been resting comfortably. Please continue to keep her in your thoughts and prayers.
