Pre-K/EC through 3rd Grade famlies - make plans to attend Family Literacy Night on April 23rd!

🍀🌈☘️ The Lucky Little Lads and Lassies in Pre-K were on the hunt to catch a leprechaun this week! Every student created their own trap and set them around the room, only to find surprise footprints, glitter and a few tricks the next morning! Too bad for the leprechaun, his shoe got stuck in one of our traps! We used it as bait to lure him back, but he was too quick for us-but he did leave us with a pot of gold goodies, a new book and a leprechaun stuffy! Better Luck next year Pre-K! 🍀

In Kindergarten our 8th graders made self-portraits on their first day of Art Class with Mrs. Carter. Mrs. Carter always puts them up towards the end of the school year for the 8th grade so that can take a look at how they perceived themselves at age 5 and to see their great drawing skills!
43 of our 69 8th Graders were with us from Kindergarten through 8th grade!
