What a great reading incentive! Mrs. Smith's 2nd graders were so excited to be guest readers in Kindergarten and Pre-K! Some were so dedicated that they even gave up their recess to practice! They carefully selected their books and rehearsed multiple times to make sure their reading debut was a success. The best part? They loved it so much that they're already begging to do it again! #ReadAcrossAmerica
More of our amazing kindergartners are showing off their reading superpowers!
Carter has mastered his kindergarten sight words, and Evelyn has completed her kindergarten fluency folder! Keep up the great work, Carter and Evelyn! We are proud of your reading success!
Another reading achievement to celebrate! Carson, a kindergartner in Mrs. Roper's class, has completed all of his kindergarten sight words. Now he is ready to take on the first grade sight word list. Congratulations, Carson! Enjoy your new book from the Book Vending Machine!
Congratulations, Lane!
Lane, a fantastic fourth-grader in Mrs. Connelly's class, was selected by Deputy Roach as the Campus Law Enforcement Student of the Month for February!
