Dental Health

This week we learned all about taking care of our teeth. Students learned about going to the dentist, flossing and brushing. Students also learned that eating healthy food is good for our teeth and what foods are healthy and which ones are not.

Remember, our book fair is next week! Come check out the great selection of books we have for your family!

Presidents Day

This week was all about the USA! We learned about our flag, some of our national symbols, and we even learned about George Washington and Abraham Lincoln.
