When students are showing our Big East Expectations of SOARing (Safety, Ownership, Acceptance, and Respect), they can earn Eagle Eye Tickets on the bus, in the pick-up area and this year we have added a separate drawing for the cafeteria! Every Friday morning, we pull one winner per grade level. This week's prize was an ice cream coupon. Congratulations to this week's winners!

Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated from September 15th through October 15th. Mrs. Willis has recorded a few real alouds to share to help celebrate the month. This week's read aloud is a short excerpt on Lin Manuel-Miranda from the book entitled Fearless Trailblazers: 11 Latinos who Made U.S. History by Naibe Reynoso.

Thank you to everyone who supported our 5th Grade Mum Sale. Pick up will be on Friday, October 13th from 4:00-5:00 pm at the side of the building.
