We had a great week at the woods! Gunston soccer club came out to meet with our 4th graders (pictured above). They taught the group about teamwork and fairness for pick up soccer games during recess. Our afterschool clubs have started, including coloring and audio book club, sports club and SOL prep clubs. Next week, we will PAWS to celebrate reading. Students will participate in fun activities and contests all week to include special guest readers in their classrooms. It's safe to say, Spring has sprung at Mt Vernon Woods!
