This afternoon, the students in Mrs. Sharrow's Kindergarten class drew maps of the classroom. Some students worked with a buddy and others drew the map independently. Either way, they had fun drawing and learning about maps!
Nature Day was a wonderful experience for all 1st graders and the weather was beautiful. The conditions for exploring nature couldn't have been any better.
Elementary students continue to show kindness to their classmates and are rewarded with leaves on their class Kindness Tree. Once their tree is filled, they come to the art room and choose a large kindness leaf and have their photo taken. The students then place the leaf on the huge Kindness Tree in our lobby. Each leaf represents 10 acts of kindness and earns $1 towards a charity at the end of each school year. This year's donation will benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

Elementary staff continued a PSSA tradition with the 2022 version of PSSA Idol.

Staff shared their talents as well as advice in helping students to do their best of the test.
