If the horse has one front leg in the air, the person died as a result of wounds received in battle.  If the horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died of natural causes.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A few notes for this short week:<\/strong><br>1) We have our MAC survey today (Monday).  You will (or did) receive an email with all the info you need.  Please take a few minutes at the end of the day to complete the survey.<br><br>2) I&#8217;m off to the fairgrounds to help with interviews at the job fair today (Monday) and will be leaving school around noon.  Call or text if you need anything!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3) The kids are enjoying having the mobile water fountain on the playground and it&#8217;s greatly reducing the traffic coming in and out of the building.  Please take a moment to talk with your class about the following:<br>*The water is for drinking only, not playing<br>*Encourage them to conserve water by holding it on only when they are drinking.  We&#8217;ve had kiddos chatting with their friends and holding it on.<br>*Let the kids know that emptying the buckets is for the adults only (or kids emptying with adult supervision if you are inclined). <br><br>4) Looking ahead, we&#8217;ll have a Staff Meeting on Tuesday, April 19 at 2:45.  That Wednesday is a Teacher Prep SIW, and we&#8217;ll have our next team SIW on April 27.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5) Earth day is coming up April 22. Are you planning anything?
