Our first day of school began with our first ever Boohoo Yahoo Breakfast sponsored by the PTO. Parents of incoming kindergarten students were able to meet in the cafeteria to enjoy breakfast, find out about the many ways to become involved in our learning community, and network with one another.
To commemorate the first day of school, we gathered around our school's flag pole to celebrate our annual balloon release. We were honored to have Mr. Gary D. Wright himself in attendance. Mr. Wright addressed the students, staff, and families. He then spent the first day of school with Dr. Unruh and myself visiting classrooms, where we had the privilege of welcoming back our students and engaging in many creative getting to know you activities that our incredibly talented staff planned.
This week, students were able to have fun on our newly installed playground equipment, thanks to the support of our PTO and Wildcat learning community! Additionally, Mr. Krivosik, our Band and Orchestra Teacher, held an assembly for our fifth grade students to preview instruments.
Our first week back to school was amazing and I look forward to what our future will hold throughout the 2016-2017 school year!
