MS/HS Awards Assembly

🏫 A Day in the Life of a Kindergartener!!📚 This year's preschool students, who will be in kindergarten next year, visited the kindergarten classroom today to learn what it's all about! We played and learned, enjoyed lunch & recess, and made some new friends!❤️

Annual camping unit in 3rd grade always includes desk tent reading!

Incoming 6-8th graders have been sent home with this flyer for a fun summer volleyball camp. See Mrs. McClure if you need one or to turn your in!

Kindergarten started their annual balloon countdown last week! Each day we pop a balloon to count down to the last day of school and inside is a fun activity for the day! We started out by kicking off our shoes and going barefoot for the day! Then, we've listened to music & read under our desk, and picked our seat for the day! Today, Mrs. Burdette visited our classroom to read a story (always a favorite) and share her love of turtles! Which included a real turtle. 🐢 Be on the lookout for more of our fun countdown activities!

It may be a day late, but we finally got our Mother's Day gifts done in Mrs. Ross's class! These kids are so creative!!!
