Student Council wrapped up the Pajama Drive on Wednesday!  We teamed up with Scholastic this year, who will provide a new book to all pajama recipients. Grade 1 collected the greatest number of new PJs and therefore wins a Pajama Day on Friday, December 22.  Congratulations to the entire school for collecting over 240 sets of PJs.  Thank you for your generosity and supporting this worthy cause!

Name the Alligator Contest Winner!
Congrats to Madelyn in Mrs. Scott's 2nd-grade classroom who named the alligator, Elbert. Thank you to Mrs. Pavlicek and the Science Center Team for bringing us fabulous animals, lessons, and experiments. Be watching for a "DIY" snow experiment for the winter break. 



Hour of Code in Action

Mrs. Guanci's kindergarten students work together with a partner to practice new coding skills they are learning in the Library/Learning Commons.  It's never too young to start coding!
