Dear Maureen M. Welch Families
These past few weeks have been full of exciting events! It is fantastic that so many of our students are able to find activities and events that interest them!
This past week brought together five teams of students, a total of 62 students who committed to reading up to 25 books. Our annual Book Bowl was held on Wednesday evening and the teams brought home blue, red and green ribbons based on detailed knowledge of the books read. Kudos to all of our Book Bowl participants! Many thanks to our staff and parent chaperones to make this a successful evening!
Warm regards,
Rebecca Grimm, Principal
Geography Bee
