This year, North Park and Super Saver have, again, partnered together with the Apples for the Students Program. By shopping at Super Saver, you can help North Park earn points to use toward purchasing supplies. With last year's points, we purchased a lot of games that the students can play during indoor recess. Help us earn points by simply shopping at Super Saver and then by placing your receipt in the North Park bucket by the Super Saver exit or by dropping off the receipt in the box located at the North Park entrance. Thanks!
1S learned all about where our food comes from last week. Mr. Blake read "How did that get in my lunch box?" then led us in a matching game. Students sorted the food products into piles of plant based or animal based. We can't wait to have the 4-H extension office come again. Thank you Mr. Blake!

The Kindergarteners love when their Rockin' Reader comes to visit each week. Today he read them a story and played games with them in the classroom.
The Kindergarten students had a special visitor today who taught them about germs and the importance of washing our hands to help us to stay healthy. The 4H instructor brought "glow-in-the-dark germs" for the students to practice their handwashing skills to help wash the germs away.
