Book Fair Success!!


Book Fairs - Firetrucks - Cross Country Stars-Conferences! WOW
Our Lions had a very exciting day today, capping off a busy and fun week. Today the fire truck came and our begindergarten, kindergarten and first graders got the chance to take a closer look! Then, the MHS Cross Country team heading off to the State Meet tomorrow came to let us cheer them on. LET'S GO KERNELS!!
This week we had the AMAZING book fair in our library with special browsing days and donuts for our parents and grandparents who came to shop. On Thursday, we held our parent/teacher conferences and were hapy to be able to sit down with parents and tell them how awesome their kids are!! We had some beautiful weather for the middle of October as well.





See you tonight at conferences!!!


While you are at parent/teacher conferences tonight, be sure to stop at the book fair!


Parent/Teacher conferences are TONIGHT! We are so excited to see you!
