We are also excited to remind you that one of our additions will be ready for students after spring break. The entire 4th grade will move into our beautiful new wing along with two first grade classrooms and two second grade classrooms. The students and teachers are thrilled about their new location.

 

First Grade Animal Research Project

After publishing the animal research project on Wixie for a couple of weeks (adding full sentences and pictures to the pages), first grade students got ready to present their work. Invitations to join students in sharing their hard work were hand delivered to teachers and staff in the building. Presentations started this week and will continue after Spring Break. Students who presented during the week were so excited to show off their animal research project to their classmates. They did an AMAZING job talking about the animal they learned about. Our audience was very kind and respectful. Students had great questions, too.  Way to go First Graders!!
