Have you ever ridden to school in a police car?
Chloe and Remington won the silent auction item - ride to school in a police car - and had the best time! Thank you Officer Hagen, our SRO, for transporting these students to school! We are sure they will always remember it!

Another silent auction item that was up for bidding at our Back to School Carnival held in August was Lunch with the Teacher! As you can imagine, it is such a fun thing for students to be able to have lunch - in the workroom - with a teacher!

2nd graders love to read!! Students in Mrs. Johnston's class learned about check-out procedures and then practiced reading to self. Procedures are such an important part of the school day - setting expectations for everything from how to do things, to behavior.
