Yesterday, our second grade students and teachers celebrated their successes in meeting goals for NWEA testing and working so hard. Everyone really enjoyed themselves with a hot cocoa day! Way to go 2nd graders! Thanks Mrs. Bromley, Mrs. Kenworthy, and Ms Huys for all you do with those kids. You are wonderful!
