Duct Tape Mr. Charnes to the Gym Wall

The PTO is still selling “tickets for tape”. Each ticket “buys” a piece of tape to tape me to the gym wall during the April all-school assembly. Tickets are still for sale in the elementary office. Tickets are $1.00; that ticket gets you one foot of tape.

March School Celebration

For our March celebration, all students will be watching the movie How to Train Your Dragon. This tied into March is Reading Month, as the majority of classes read this book together. Students will get to watch the movie on Friday while having popcorn provided by our PTO.
