This week Mrs. Everidge and Mrs. Hamood visited our second and third grade classrooms to talk about the importance of having good hygiene. They talked about important topics such as the proper way to wash hands, the importance of brushing teeth regularly, and even did fun experiment showing just how easy it is to spread germs using a black light! How cool?! Our goal is to instill healthy habits in our students to keep them happy and healthy!
