Walk-a-Thon

We finally had our walk-a-thon on Tuesday. Fortunately the weather turned out beautiful, and we were able to enjoy the activities. The students were very excited to see their parents and guests. The walk-a-thon is the biggest fundraiser for the school and the PFO uses the money to provide teachers materials and field trips. Thank you for all your support!

Walk-a-Thon

On Friday Mary Castle participated in their annual Walk-a-Thon to raise money that goes directly to the school and teachers. It is the main fundraiser for the PFO. Friday turned out to be a great day for the event, and our class was fortunate to have many parents and guests attend and walk with us.

Air Force

As part of our Walk-a-Thon this year, we have been assigned a branch of the armed services. First grade has been studying the Air Force. Yesterday Mr. Reeves came and talked to us about what he did in the Air Force. We learned about their flag. Today another member of the military came and spoke to us about the different jobs you can do and about the Thunderbirds.
