First grade has been playing steady beat chords on the xylophones, and also playing the melody to "One, Two, Buckle My Shoe". Now they have to see if they can put the xylophone back together the correct way!

Purses with a Purpose
Thanks to all of your help so far we have raised over $500 for PBIS and over $2500 in gift cards have been donated to our teachers for their classrooms!
We had so many students that earned a Caring Cardinal Card, we decided to pick 6 winners this week!!
At this time Pre-k is full, however if you have a 3 or 4 year old that will NOT be going to Kindergarten next year(26-27), please have them screened. I will have lots of openings next year. The screening calendar is posted below. Call the number, then they will get you set up at one of the screening locations below.
Reminder: there is no pre-K tomorrow, Friday, September 12!!
