2nd Grade Field Trip

Many of our 2nd grade classes went on a field trip to Bama Lanes. They were discussing fractions in Math and were able to relate it real life as they knocked down only a "fraction" of the pins. I wonder if Ms. McGaskill knocked them all down for a STRIKE? It looks like they had a great time on this trip!

PTO February 19th

The Yellow Pods performed this evening and did a GREAT JOB! The PTO discussed the upcoming Spring Fling (April 12th) and expressed a need for volunteers to pull off this special event. If you are interested in volunteering at our Spring Fling please call the school and we will put you in touch with our PTO President. It is always a fun filled event for our children.

The PTO also has artwork items for sale. Your child produced a special piece of art at the beginning of the school year after a study of a famous artist. This artwork has been reproduced on a magnet. The company also offers T-shirts, aprons, coffe mugs.. and the list goes on and on. These will be available at our next PTO meeting in March. We will also hold an Arts Festival April 22nd. This will be the last day to buy your child's special piece of artwork.

Valentine's at CES

We had a great time February 14th showing our teachers, staff, students and friends how much we love and appreciate them.

Making Memories at CES!

We are 100 days smarter!
