🎉 An all-school picnic is coming to Layne on Friday (weather permitting), and it was such a huge hit last year that we couldn't wait to do it again. ☀️ If you'd like, please send your student with a towel or small blanket to spread out on while they enjoy their meal outside. 🧺 It's a wonderful way for our school community to come together and make some sunny memories! 😊
