Happy Leap Year Day!

Over the February break the construction crew began work on what will be our new library. If all goes as scheduled, and so far it has, the library will be ready the first day of school. Work will then begin on the cafeteria which should be ready in November. The playground will be installed in the spring when the weather gets better. It's exciting for the students (and the adults) to watch the progress.

It's hard to believe that we have already been in school over one hundred days this year. The classrooms celebrated this exciting event in a number of ways last Monday. See below for just some of the activities in which students participated.
"If I were a 100 years old I would rock in a rocking chair."
Gumball Math in Kindergarten.
Making a picture with 100 dots in 1st Grade.
Writing and posting 100 words in 2nd Grade.
March Events: The March PTA meeting will be held on Wednesday, 3/9 at 6:30 in the library. The PTA will hold BINGO night at Camillus Middle School on Friday, 3/11. Doors open at 6:00 and the games begin at 6:30. It's always a fun night for the students and their families. The Education Fair will be held Tuesday, 3/15 from 6:15 to 7:45 and the 3rd grade chorus concert will be held on 3/23 at 7:00 p.m. in the gym.

This week's words of the day are difference (M), equator (T), draft (W), motion (Th), and patience (F). Have a great week!
