Friday, April 29 was the conclusion of our One Book, One School project. The whole school participated in reading The World According To Humphrey , a very wise hamster! Humphrey's world consists of Room 26, an elementary classroom, and the children's homes he visits on weekends. We learned so much from Humphrey!! Thank you Mrs. Bryson for coordinating this awesome school project!
May 4 is Bike/Walk to School Day. Our usual staff volunteers are in place and our regular rally points will be used. Students who ride their bikes with helmets should be sure to stop by our office and get a helmet sticker to support our Get Your Head in a Helmet campaign.
