WE ARE HALF WAY THERE!
Welcome Back, Arrey Tigers!
Happy New Year! I hope each of you had a wonderful holiday season filled with joy and rest. As we step into a brand-new year and a fresh semester, let’s take this opportunity to reflect on our goals, celebrate how far we’ve come, and refocus on where we’re headed.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. had a dream as a young man and worked tirelessly to turn it into reality by setting goals and following a plan. Just like Dr. King, each of you can dream big and begin taking steps now to achieve your goals. With hard work, determination, and a plan, you can make your dreams come true.
We only have one semester left in this school year, and together, we have the power to make it extraordinary. Let’s buckle down, support one another, and stay determined to finish strong. Every small step we take each day brings us closer to success, and I believe in the greatness each of you carries within.
Let’s make 2025 a year to remember, filled with learning, growth, and Tiger pride!
With gratitude and hope,
Ms. Brandy Williams

Hi Families!
January 2025
Happy New Year!
All students did a great job creating functional art during the month of December. It felt like a factory here in the art room.
This month, all students will be working on Poppy Posters for the American Legion Auxiliary. During this project, students will learn about colored pencil techniques, as well as principals and elements of design. The poppy posters are a great way for kids to show their appreciation of veterans, and for them to engage with their community.
After poppy posters, students will create a self portrait for the Square 1 Art fundraiser. As always, kids will be engaging with state standards while working on these projects.
As always, please reach out with questions or concerns or ideas. We welcome your input about current and future art projects!
Be well,
Thea Storz
Rhonda Nickles
