During November, Emily placed first in the Long Beach VFW Voice of Democracy Audio Essay Contest and advanced to the district level. We recently learned that Emily placed third at the district level which encompasses all of Southwest Washington. She received $100 for each award. Congratulations! We are very proud of you.

Our 5th grade students have been learning about the sun and moon, why we have seasons, and the measurement of time. Here are some pictures of their recent, hands-on, moon phase activity that involved Oreos and Nilla Wafers.







Each student in our kindergarten class received a free copy of the children's book-"Mealtime At The Zoo"-by children's author, James Willamson. Mr. Williamson is the uncle of one of our students. We could not be more thankful for this very generous gift. Thank you, Mr. Williamson!!!
