Friday the elementary finished up their read-a-thon with their pajama day (250 minutes) and snack time (all students received for reading so much). The kids especially were surprised by their snacks on their desks when they came in front last recess. A snack mix and hot cocoa with whipped topping and chocolate chips! There was even a little surprise saying on the bottom of the snack filled coffee filter. The kids loved them so much many took them home 💖 Some times it is the little things that mean the most 💖
A few dates to keep in mind regarding athletics:

Today is World Kindness Day! The elementary student council held a fun activity with the elementary students this morning. Each student received a balloon and wrote their name on it. All of the balloons were placed in the hall and they had to find their balloon. They helped each other find their balloons. It was fun to see the kids working together and being extra kind while looking for their balloons.
As Mr. Rogers once said, “There are three ways to ultimate success: The first way is to be kind. The second way is to be kind. The third way is to be kind.” Happy World Kindness Day!
