It's a Wonderful Time of the Year

It's that time of year when our children get that little spark in their eyes and their excitement grows each day.  The temperatures have dropped and some days the children arrive at school all bundled up like little Eskimos, as the song goes.  Others have come to school in their pajamas and slippers ready for an exciting Pajama Day.  Fourth graders have arrived to school carrying beautiful Geo Cities they created while studying geometry.  Some classrooms have sharpened their math skills by creating Geo-Houses with graham crackers, frosting and candy.  First graders enjoyed a visit with South Elementary retired teachers as they read a variety of winter stories aloud.  As these activities draw to a close along with 2011, I want to take this time to extend warm wishes to all of our South Elementary families.  We will see you in 2012!
