The past few weeks I have been able to go into each class and do a read aloud of two great books about space!


Our new mascot, Pluto the Panther gets to hang out in one room each day! Yesterday was the first day and he got to hang out with Mrs. Trefil's class!
"Pluto got to join us for morning meeting! We also did some research on Panthers with Pluto’s help. We had such a great day having Pluto in our room!"


A huge shout out to the unsung hero of the building, head custodian Carolyn Morford!! She has always gone above and beyond for us, but especially over the last two years! We are so lucky and thankful to have her here!!!

A little rainbow to start our Friday morning!!!
