Our next BOAT (Best Of All Time) is Mrs. McGallion!

Students had a great time with their 100 days of school activities. They got to count cereal, make treat bags with 100 food items inside, and even lick a tootsie pop 100 times to see if they could reach the middle.

Mrs. Saulsbury's class celebrated 100 Days of Kindergarten!

Mrs. Lieby's class celebrated 100 Days of School!

6th grade threw "snowball" topics to introduce argumentative text.

Mrs. Sirmons class played a dice game to practice sight word fluency.

Mr. Lawlis is the next BOAT (Best Of All Time) member!

Kindergarten is "smart as can bee!" They invited Mr. Drake into the classroom to show him how much they have learned and how fast they can fly through their sight word review deck.

Please expect delays this afternoon. Bus routes will be combined.

Pirate Pride shout out to James, Yuna, Vivian, and Madroxx! They all were on task and listening all day and had a cheerful attitude about doing their work. Keep up the great work!
