During Parent Teacher Conferences
Last week, 13 fourth graders campaigned for Student Council. They made a poster and gave a speech to their class. They were selected by a scoring system by their classmates. We are so proud of everyone who campaigned. Check out their great posters!
Parent / Teacher Conferences are next week! Please help us out by signing up to bring something for the Conference Day meals. Thank you!
