Park Students had the opportunity to compare and contrast a healthy drug free mind and body to an unhealthy mind and body on drugs with a fancy convertible Ford Mustang and a demolition derby car.
Students came out and viewed the cars as a class and had a discussion with our PTA President Pat Christianson and Principal Ryan Kay. Students were taught when we make healthy choices this is what our body looks like and feels like. And when we make unhealthy choices this is what our body looks like and feels like.
Park Elementary students enjoyed a special treat Tuesday...Or should we say "Trick" when dis-illusionist Brad Barton visited during Red Ribbon Week.
Students were engaged in a high energy magic show as magician Brad Barton made a credit card float in mid air, ripped a newspaper to shreds and put it back together as well as many other incredible tricks throughout the show.
6th grade students enjoyed reading with their "Book Buddy" last Friday.

Thank you to everyone that supported Park Night at Sonic. It was great to see so many students and parents brave the cold and rain. We were pretty sure that Mrs. Banks was in the slush costume, but when she showed up we are guessing it must have been our very own Mr. Gull!
