February Newsletter
2021/2022
Winter Weather
February came in with a bang! We suffered a freeze and an extreme freeze this month. It was so cold, all the students had to have P.E. classes in the Lion's Den which was great for me. I love to see the students coming in every day. I also enjoyed hearing the music they would use to exercise.
February Holidays
Valentine's Day and Presidents Day are holidays we celebrate in February. I hold lessons on the origins of both of these holidays every year. I change it up so the students learn something new. When it comes to Valentine's Day, in particular, the students expect the lesson. It's tradition! Once the lesson is done, it's time for their library books.
UIL
We continued to attend UIL meets in February. It was our busiest month. We attended a meet for three of the four Saturdays in February. Two were virtual which means the students showed up to the Lasara campus and attended the invitational meet online, and the last one for this month was an in-person meet. Regardless, the students worked hard and did great. I am so proud of each and every one of these students.
Baseball and Softball Season has begun!
You know it's Spring when baseball and softball season begins. The students are working hard practicing for their game! Way to go Lions!
FFA Week
Lasara celebrated FFA week! Ms. Montemayor made arrangements with me to check out that had to do with farming and farm animals. I made arrangements to have her high school FFA students read to our elementary classes during their library time. It was a great success. Both the high school and elementary students loved it! Thank you Ms. Montemayor for spreading the love of reading with the love for FFA!
