Avery Fisher has been coming to the elementary school to teach about different 4-H topics like making butter and tortillas. The students are getting great hands on experience along with yummy treats too! Thank you Avery, Baylea, and Mrs. Fisher.
Market Day in 2nd grade was a fun and exciting way to become an entrepreneur and learn all about our economy. Students created art for 1st graders to purchase (with fake money, of course). The group that earned the most money won the Market Day Event and became The Entrepreneurs of the Year!💰🤑
As you can see, state testing starts tomorrow. Please be sure your children get adequate sleep and nutrition this week! 🍳😴
