Come see your Martell teachers scoop ice cream!!

10% of all proceeds come back to Martell!

This was based off the book, 'What do Words Mean?' Each student in grades 3-5 chose a word or phrase that was inspiring to others, and created in Cricut design studio. They printed and weeded it from the vinyl. We then had an incredible parent volunteer team that came in and helped iron them on to shirts.

Student Council presented an incredible assembly about the project and honored their teachers and the project.

The assembly ended with a parade in the halls to show off our shirts. This project was student led and produced with voice and choice.

We are so proud of our teachers and students!

Please send your child with the appropriate gear, labeled each day!

Coats, snowpants, hats, gloves and boots.

Please practice independence with winter gear dressing/undressing if your child needs it.

Thank you!
