Hi Families, We have realized that Class Picture day is during Black History Month Spirit Week next week. They are allowed to participate in that day and wear Red,Black, and Green for African Flag day. If not participating in the Spirit Week, then they must remain in uniform. If you have any questions feel free to reach out to the schooll. We are very sorry for the confusion. Thank You, Layne Elementary
