Highlight of the
Week
Coins For Change: PJ
Day
Fifth grade student, Tes Scott, organized a school spirit
day to raise money for mosquito nets to help prevent malaria in Africa. Students and staff (and administrators!) who
brought in loose change were able to wear their PJs all day. We all certainly enjoyed being comfortable
and supporting a great cause! I am proud to share that we raised $672.00, which will purchase 14 nets! We thank
Tes for organizing this fun and worthy event!
Kindergartners Test
Gravity
Kindergarten students put the laws of gravity to the test on
Friday when they did an egg drop. The
children were determined to protect their eggs and “not make them like humpty
dumpty” by creating creative contractions that protected their eggs when
dropped from the roof. I was proud to see
that thanks to our students, several eggs survived!
