This week Mrs. Everidge and Mrs. Hamood visited our second and third grade classrooms to talk about the importance of having good hygiene. They talked about important topics such as the proper way to wash hands, the importance of brushing teeth regularly, and even did fun experiment showing just how easy it is to spread germs using a black light! How cool?! Our goal is to instill healthy habits in our students to keep them happy and healthy!

Our second and third grade students have been working hard and learning so much this year. We thought we would celebrate all they have accomplished and get them "pumped up" for IRead this week. The theme was "Donut Stress the Test". The kids enjoyed a donut treat and the video below that was created by many of the staff. We are very proud of these kids!
