Spring/Easter Break is from March 25th until April 1st. A very important opportunity to vote for Union Parish Schools is coming up April 2nd. Please vote FOR the 15 mill property tax so that wise decisions can be made for our future. Mark your calendars for May 9th our graduation day. As you can see, there is a lot to plan for over the next few months. Thanks to your generosity at our 2003 Fall Festival, four classrooms in our school were recently equipped with new desks which allowed all classrooms to upgrade their desk conditions. This is yet another phase of our Make a Difference in Downsville started in September, 2003. Other projects, such as playground improvements, assembly of playground equipment, and landscaping are in the production stage. Very soon, each playground will have several pieces of new equipment. Thank you for your support and thank you for allowing us to teach your children., Principal
