Tuesday - Glinda's Goodness: Shine in PINK to honor your teacher's year-long acts of kindness, just like dear Ga-linda!

Our 2nd Graders had a hoot of a time getting up close and personal with farm critters on their field trip! The day was a whirlwind of barnyard fun and agricultural adventures. The kiddos shook, rattled, and rolled to churn butter, uncovered the mysteries of seed sprouting, cozied up with furry friends, and got the buzz on cattle and honey bees. Yeehaw! 🐮🐏🐷
