Our school was bursting with spirit this week as our Student Ambassadors hosted a not-so-spooky spirit week. We loved seeing kids celebrating spirit days at home and at school. Be sure to check out some of the creative costumes that our students wore on Wednesday on our school Costume Day Padlet.
Our classroom highlight this week is Mrs. Kim’s 3rd and 4th grade class. They shared some of their Magnificent Moments with us from classrooms and from home! We enjoyed reading about their animal research and proud moments this week. Room 223 Highlight
