Updates
Glow Party
As a reward for reaching our Fun Run fundraising goal, the children earned a GLOW PARTY! Our PTO went all out to create a memorable event on Thursday morning. With the cafeteria lights turned down low, neon decorations adorning the walls, and glow necklaces for every children, we turned up the music and had a BLAST! Grade levels were paired together to have their own special time at the party. With great dance music, balloons, and confetti cannons, I think this was a morning the kids won't soon forget.
Mayor Baker Visits Leonard Fourth Grade
As part of the fourth graders' Social Studies unit on government, Mayor Baker was invited to speak to our students about how our local government serves our community. The children learned how schools, parks, jobs, snowplowing, and road maintenance are all services supported by our local government. Our students had the opportunity to ask questions and the mayor's visit certainly made our curriculum come alive!
