Mustang Stampede
We did it! We exceeded our goal of $45,000 for Technology and Teacher Grantsπ π π Our students had an incredible time at the Mustang Stampede Obstacle Course! They worked hard, sweat, smiled, and celebrated our school by uniting together for a common goal. We are truly grateful for our Murchison Elementary families! Thank you for your support this past week. You are rock stars!
I also want to add that I was so incredibly proud of our students during the event. The Boosterthon reps came up to me to tell me what respectful and kind students we have, and to let me know how impressed they were with our kids. We have an amazing community and you are raising wonderful little humans!
