FROM THE PRINCIPAL
Panther Families,
We kicked off March is Reading Month today! Students were so excited to come in and see the building decorated to our theme, “Around the World.” Our parent volunteers and the PTO did a fantastic job; the building looks amazing! Each hallway represents a different country; Brazil, Japan, the Netherlands, Canada, Kenya and Australia. To start the month, we had “Build a Fort and Read Day,” as well as watched our first Masked Reader video. Throughout the day students guessed who our mystery reader could be. At the end of the month we will unveil all of our special readers.
Next week the district is hosting Elementary Literacy Night at the KDL Caledonia Branch Library. It begins at 6:00 pm and will consist of reading based games, a chance to sign up for a library card, and story time with each building Principal. We hope you can join us!
Have an amazing weekend!
