Looking Forward to Warmer Weather!

The Math, Science, Technology Fair was a hit! The kids' recycling projects were incredible. We had balloon cars, bird feeders, wind chimes, self-watering flower pots, even a working compost bin ~ what imaginations! Nate entered his own project, Pepper Sneeze, and won 2nd place in the elementary report category! Congratulations to all.

We hope you'll be able to find time to visit our hallway. You'll get a kick out of our coral reef (made from joint compound and paint) and the compound Rainbow Jellyfish made from plastic baggies with compound words written on their tentacles.

Don't forget to visit the Art Show, attend the Elementary Spring Concert (at 6:30) and vote on our school budget Tuesday, May 19.
