Kindergarten Book Buddy Day

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

There was a tremendous amount of synergy going on as students and buddies researched an animal and prepared a report.  Afterwards, our kindergarten students were proactive in serving their buddies some donuts and water.  It was a win-win situation as everyone put first things first in working on the research papers and then sharpened the saw by giggling and enjoying the donuts.  We would love to thank our amazing PTO for providing the donuts!  They truly seek first to understand our needs!

A Real "BULL"-Y Blocker

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

On Leap Day, we had an assembly.  Rodeo Clown J.J. Harrison was there along with rodeo queens and rodeo officials from Spanish Fork City.  They talked a lot about the difference between teasing and bullying as well as the difference between tattling and reporting.  J.J. always likes to end with a contest.  He had Mr. James come up and try to rope him.  Mr. James actually roped him!  Then to close, we repeated after J.J. and told our teachers that they were awesome and underpaid.
