Come a little early, give the gift of blood, and then join us for the school board meeting afterwards.
We started our READBowl this week! 📚
Houses are competing against each other to read the most minutes. The house with the most minutes read wins a popcorn party! This long, cold weekend is the perfect time to snuggle up with a good book and rack up those minutes for your house! 💙💚🖤❤️
*To record your minutes read, simply report to your homeroom teacher how many minutes, a brief explanation of what you read, and which house you represent. You can also complete a short Book Review to display in the hallway by the READBowl bulletin board!
