Mrs. Steiner’s third grade students completed a Flat Stanley or Flat Stella project recently! The students were proud to show off their art skills and how they created their own unique Stanley or Stella. #breakingout
Mrs. Weber's kindergarten students enjoyed a fun read aloud with Mr. Morgan! In the story, a student is reluctant to put on his snow suit for recess. The teacher and principal chat with the student and somehow a huge mix-up occurs with their clothes! At that point, the principal decides to move to Arizona where he has no more snow suits to deal with. #breakingout
