Enrichment Day a Hit!

The PTA’s annual enrichment day was a hit once again this year. The success of the program can be attributed to all of the people who volunteered their time sharing a craft, or a hobby, and coordinating the program. Thank you to Mrs. Irving, Ms. Plantz, Mrs. Grooms, and countless others for all of your efforts. As you can see by the pictures, the students had a great time!

Last week our 5th grade students and teachers taught the school about the January character trait of perseverance. They did this through a combination of playing games, sharing quotes, signing, and telling stories. Thank you to the fifth grade team!

Congratulations to Abigail Ray, a student in Miss Button's 5th grade class, who did a wonderful job representing our school and our district in this year's Post-Standard/WCNY Spelling Bee. Abigail first made it into the top 12 at the district spelling bee, then was one of the top 35 spellers in the written spelling bee. This weekend she participated in the Post-Standard/WCNY Spelling Bee and made it to the 5th round. Way to go Abby! We are proud of you!
