Thanks to the 3rd and 4th grade students and their families for attending last week's Cold Winter's Night literacy event at the elementary school!

REMINDER: The elementary school's Cold Winter's Night is this evening from 6-7PM for 3rd and 4th grade students and their families. The night includes visiting the classroom to view their child's ELA project, get a free book from Scholastic, participate in fun activities around the school (poem scavenger hunt, create a glow-in-the-dark bookmark, photo booth station, raffle basket drawing) and enjoy hot chocolate and cookies.

Happy Friday!! Staff breakfast in the cafeteria

Mrs. Rouse's 4th grade class was chosen in a drawing at the elementary school to make decorations for a Christmas tree in the central office boardroom. The students decorated the tree, enjoyed some snacks and listened to Superintendent Dr. Tim Roth read the book, 'Twas The Night Before Christmas.

Third grade students recently read the book, Balloons Over Broadway: The True Story of the Puppeteer of Macy's Parade by Melissa Street. Students then created their own balloon creations and had a parade this afternoon throughout the elementary school. WATCH THE VIDEO OF PARADE HERE: https://fb.watch/osO-J1joxt/
