Each week our Cardinal mascot spends the week in the classroom with the highest attendance percentage from the week before. Students in Mrs. Hill’s 2nd grade had perfect attendance last week and earned the Creed Collins cardinal to have in their classroom all week. Students have tried their best to make him comfortable by providing a nest, egg, crown and lightsaber. Life is good in the second grade.
Don't forget the PTO meeting this evening. The class with the highest attendance will win a special prize!
