Attention 3rd Graders
Ms. Chandler is happy to announce an opportunity to help Braeburn Elementary in Houston, Texas while having some fun in the process. All third graders are invited to play dodgeball before school, for a monetary donation. The fourth graders raised $410 with their kickball tournament in December. Let's see if 3rd grade can beat them! Just show up at door 10 (gym door) at 8:00 am. Since you don't play dodgeball in PE, this is a great opportunity. Students are not required to attend as this is an optional before school activity.
Wednesday, February 28th Miss Otto's Class
Friday, March 9th Mrs. Ceglio's Class
Monday, March 12th Mrs. Lee's Class
Friday, March 16th Mrs. Peterson's Class
Wednesday, March 21st Ms. Sitar's Class
Friday, March 23rd Miss Parrish's Class
