HOT CHOCOLATE CHALLENGE AT ANDERSON
Our annual Hot Chocolate Challenge is back! Each year in Jan/Feb we challenge each classroom to work as a team and earn 10 GOLD SLIPS by following Anderson's Best Expectations in the hallways, lunchroom, playground, and special classes... When each class earns 10 Gold Slips, they are treated to a warm cup of Hot Chocolate at recess. We add some fun music and, of course, a few marshmallows. Ask your child how many Gold Slips their class has earned so far.
