 Congratulations to all the Lemon Road artists who had work featured at the Marshall Pyramid Art Show last week! It was great to see so many families and proud artists visit our section and receive certificates from Mrs. Norton. Thank you for your support!
Last week, Lemon Road teachers hosted Family Engagement Events in Grades 2 and 5. Our 2nd graders showed off their recent social studies units about the American Indian cultures. The students worked together and were very proud of their finished projects. 5th graders shared their independent writing pieces related to their technology Benchmark Advance Unit. I learned a lot visiting the classrooms Friday afternoon. Thank you to all the family members who took time on Friday to visit with us.
Tomorrow is an Early Release Monday. Unless your child is staying for childcare or the Grade 5 & 6 Dance, they will be dismissed at 11:55.
