--Our picnic will take place regardless of the weather.
--Please send a beach towel and a change of clothes with your child in case of a surprise rain shower. It may be too cold for water games.

Mrs. Braithwaite’s class has officially completed another Perfect Attendance Challenge — and they now have not 1, not 2, not 3… but four trophies this school year!
Way to go to Mrs. Braithwaite, her amazing 2nd graders, and their families for making attendance a priority. Your commitment truly makes a difference!

Many thanks to our secretary, Miss Angee, for helping make our Kindergartners Hearts Around the World project even more special!
Our Kindergarten class was excited today to receive valentines from President Donald Trump and WV Senator Jim Justice — and even a little love from Babydog!

Challenge accepted! Mrs. Cryser’s and Miss Kayla’s first graders began a Random Acts of Kindness Challenge for the month of February. When a kind act is noticed, students earn a heart on our poster — and they LOVE seeing their random act and names displayed! Alaina was especially excited to spot hers on the banner this week.
So proud of our Bobcats for spreading kindness every day! Let’s keep it up!

A BIG thank you to Governor Patrick Morrisey for taking the time to send our kindergarteners a Valentine for their Hearts Across the World project!
It even arrived with the official state seal — talk about an exciting delivery for our kinders!
We are so proud of our students for spreading kindness near and far, and we truly appreciate Governor Morrisey for helping make this project extra memorable! Special shout out to Miss Angee for this wonderful surprise.
