Our Principal has been SLIMED!






In honor of all of our Readers To Leaders Mrs. Phillips has been slimed! She congratulated all of the children that met their reading goal and then turned over her microphone as the teachers dribbled buckets of slime over her head. She challenged the children to continue to read. Some of the other "rewards" good readers have to look forward to include Bingo, watching Mrs. Phillips KISS a PIG, and listening to her read a book while duct taped to the dining room wall! Wow! Does she know how to motivate her students or what???? Where's my book - I'm ready to read right now!

Veteran's Day 2010








Today after our awards ceremony we presented the book America's White Table written by Margot Theis Raven and illustrated by Mike Benny. This book tells the story of how our patriotic and military families remember our American Heros by setting a small white table on Veteran's Day. As we read and re-read this book in class our students came to understand the sacrifice that our service men and women (and their families) made for our freedom. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
