Lexi Owen, a recent 8th Grade Smithton Elementary School graduate, was nominated by teacher, Stephanie Berry, for the Do the Right Thing Award. Lexi Owen was picked as a top winner of the award for the month of May. Mrs. Berry said, "Lexi Owen is a young lady with a big heart. She always looks out for others, and she includes others when they are left out of situations. Lexi stands up for anyone being wronged by anyone else. Lexi is a beautiful young lady on the inside and out. I just hope she knows how much of a positive impact she makes on other people with her simple acts of kindness. She is very deserving to be honored with the Do the Right Thing Award. I am very proud of her."

Pre-K had so much fun pampering our mama's and grandma's during Mommy & Me Morning on Friday! Moms and Grandmas were treated to mud masks, massages, snacks, cucumber water, mocktails and lots of laughs! Student's loved teaming up with their guest to paint Mommy Pots, for all those little flowers picked by their little hands-and we ended the gathering with a reading of I'll Love You Forever. We were even lucky enough to enjoy a beautiful picnic style lunch outside together! Happy Mother's Day to all of our wonderful Pre-K Moms and Grandmas! 💐💜
