Happy Friday, Shark Families!

It was a three-day week, but boy, did we pack five days of learning into three! A big thanks to our parent volunteers for selling popcorn on Thursday during recess and then taking in money for our hat sale. These fundraisers go to help our Beta Club and 3-5th grade overnight field trips. These are learning experiences that teach background knowledge and application of what we are doing in class. Also, today we celebrated National STEM Day! We incorporate STEM into our best practices, but it is also exciting to celebrate. We have a full week next week, and I can't wait to see you on Monday!

Have a wonderful weekend!
Committed to Success,

Heather Touchberry
