1/19: Dine Out For Tatem
3K has earned their second marble jar celebration! On Tuesday, students will be allowed to wear pajamas to school and bring in a stuffed animal. 3K is excited about all of the hard work they've done to achieve this goal!
Thank you to parents for helping students put together such a special birthday for me. The students threw me a beautiful surprise party, filled with fun signs and yummy treats. I am so grateful to have such thoughtful and sweet kids in 3K!
Honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
After our discussion, students made a list of important words that they believe characterize Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Each student chose a word and then thought of their own dream that they have for the world. We created posters to add to our hallway to demonstrate the great impact that Dr. MLK Jr made and the dreams that we have for the world.
