We like happy news, so the Tireless Teacher Award was created to celebrate our staff. It is a rotating award, passed between buildings by the previous recipient. Sure, it is a bit of a “white elephant” award - a dusty old tire, but it sure draws attention, an opportunity to have a good laugh, but also provide positive recognition for our folks as they work hard for their students. This month’s recipient is Kindergarten Teacher, Missy Criqui! Thank you for your hard work! Congrats!
Our kindergarten class has been learning the letters M and O so they drew MOM. Looks like we have some future artist on our hands!
Books may be returned to either building
