Dear Parents,
Happy Birthday to Laura! We look forward to celebrating her special day on Monday!
A BIG “thank you” to the kindergarten parents for providing such a yummy Friday Feast. We appreciate your kindness.
We are very excited about the upcoming Economics Expo and Bake Sale this Wednesday, March 28th in the CCE cafeteria after school. Hope to see everyone there!
In addition to learning about the Free Enterprise System, students have been researching and writing expository text on endangered species. Third graders voted to have the proceeds from this year's Expo to The Nature Conservancy. This nonprofit organization's mission "is to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends on." Use the link to find out what The Nature Conservancy is doing right here in Texas!
