Ms. Vaughn and Mrs. Mandi had a fun and successful Star Wars day with their students. The students were able to dress like a Star Wars character, have special theme snacks and Star Wars “brain break activities”. They also read about Star Wars Characters and did some fun Star Wars theme ELA and Math center activities. They even had a special Star Wars character guest reader!

District Announcement: Online Kindergarten Registration for 26-27 is open!!! In-person registration at the school site will be May 1 and May 8 from 1pm to 3pm.

Progress towards readiness begins at birth and is influenced by families and friends, early care and education providers, and the community.

A ready child is prepared physically, emotionally, socially, and intellectually. This means that each child enters school ready to participate in and benefit from early learning experiences that best promote the child’s success so that they are eager and excited to learn.

If you have any questions, please contact the Elementary Supervisor, Hope Malone at 423.272.7629 EXT 2006
