Mrs. Schwengels and Mrs. Vasquez’s class earth day activities
Yesterday in K-4, these students were recognized for being their class’s monthly character trait winner for good judgment. Way to go!
Fourth graders celebrated Earth Day by replanting our Bee Garden, researching and drawing honeybees, and enjoying honey inspired snacks. They also participated in a bee keeper presentation and honey tasting presented by Shannon Baxter of Baxter’s Bees! 🐝
A student in Mrs. Norris' class wrote his own letter to Lowes home improvement stating he wanted to build a theme park in his back yard and that he needed wood, nails and paint. Mrs. Norris wrote a letter with it and mailed it to the CEO the beginning of April. Today they delivered a box full of Lowe's gear, supplies, tool carrier, hand written note from assistant chief officer and a gift card for $100. We love seeing companies who love and support student creativity!!
