A Note From Principal Graham
Wow, just like that the 3rd nine weeks will end on Wednesday. This year is flying by! Thank you so much to all of our parents that joined us for our Book Fair and Sundaes and Stories event. Oh, how I loved seeing the student faces light up after getting a book and engaging in the theater production! Not to mention the lesson learned of stranger danger was very important for our students to hear.
This week we celebrated Read Across America and National School Breakfast Week. It was wonderful to see the students and staff dress up each day. Some of our fifth-grade students took on a leadership role in the morning reminding our Patriots to eat breakfast.
Please take advantage of the sunshine this weekend. Our students were so excited to be outside today and enjoy some fresh air and sun. Have some family fun outside!
