DEAR Week

 We are only half way done, but it has been a fabulous week of reading!  Thank you to Mrs. Mehr and our teacher team for planning a week chock-full of pair-ups, dress-ups, and reading fun!  So many "novel" ideas!

Dads and Donuts

 

Thank you to our East Prairie Dads Group and the PTA for sponsoring a fabulous first "Dads and Donuts" family event.  The opportunity to come together, connect, and have some fun brought together lots of dads, kids, families, and community members for a sensational Saturday morning.  

Donuts were enjoyed and coffee consumed as paper airplanes soared through the atrium and all manner of games were played in the gym.  Not to mention, we collected and organized tons of clothing for our Panther Pantry (grand reopening in new location coming soon). 

What a wonderful way to bring folks together and build new partnerships!

We got this!

 We tested our strength and endurance as we rocked the IAR test!  Our students surely soared to success (like they do each and every day)!

Thank you to our 5th graders for adding their spirited and inspirational messages to our front circle as we wrap-up the week!

Let it fly!

In preparation for our April 15th Dads & Donuts event - our staff tried out the paper airplane contest idea as our team builder at this week's staff meeting.  Needless to say it was a soaring success!
