Mavs Mentors...A HUGE Success!
On Mavs Mentor Days we set aside special time to let our students learn from one another.
Upper elementary is paired with lower grade levels and then the fun begins! The children (and the teachers are loving it!)
A special shout-out and thank you to Mrs. Dansbee for coordinating these amazing opportunities. We look forward to our next Mavs Mentor Day on March 29!
