🎄🦌 Our First Graders Shined Bright! 🦌
Tonight our amazing first graders took the stage and brought The Littlest Reindeer musical to life! From the adorable songs to the big smiles, they performed with so much heart and holiday spirit.
We are so proud of their hard work, courage, and Christmas cheer! They truly made the season a little brighter! ❤️✨
Great job, first graders! 🎶🎅
What a great way to start a Friday! This morning, we were thrilled to have our amazing Vilonia High School Cheerleaders visit! They brought school spirit, greeting students with high fives and huge smiles as they arrived. Later, during our Feel Good Friday assembly, they shared a special message focused on Habit 4: Think Win Win! They taught about the importance of cooperation, looking for solutions that help everyone, and working together as a team. Thank you to our wonderful cheerleaders for inspiring students both with their spirit and their character!

CELBRATE THIS WEEK FOR READ ACROSS AMERICA
March 2 is Read Across America Day, a day to celebrate our favorite activity. The day was established by the National Education Association (NEA) in 1998 to help get kids excited about reading. The day occurs each year on the birthday of beloved children’s book author Dr. Seuss, so a perfect way to celebrate is to don a Seussian hat and read one his famous tales, like One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish. On National Read Across America Day, students, teachers, parents, and community members around the nation come together to read books and celebrate the joy of reading — join us!
