Candace Fleming is Visiting Montgomery!
Award-winning author Candace Fleming will be visiting Montgomery Elementary on Friday, March 10. Our students could not be more excited!
Our excitement is also filling the walls at Montgomery. If you are in the building, please enjoy the "Squid Works" artwork on display in the first floor common areas until the end of March. The First Grade artwork is also on display. (If you would like to help hang student artwork once a month, please contact Amy Schmidlin at akschmidlin@gmail.com.)
Students are also designing and making their very own buttons to wear during Ms. Fleming's visit. The button maker is a new addition to our Media Center where students have opportunities to explore their creativity every day.
Be sure to check Facebook on Friday (ask to follow Montgomery Elementary PTO) to find out the winners of our Candace Fleming bookmark contest!
