2nd Graders investigated different types of soil today and determined which one was sand, silt, clay and loam. We also discussed which type of soil is best for Farmers to grow their crops.


We have Kona Ice here on Thursday for those students that earned a Kona Ice party with the PTO fundraiser. They are planning to stick around after school until approximately 4:30 for anyone interested in purchasing a nice spring drink - open to the public and students after dismissal 3:30-4:30. They will be located in the south parking lot between the playground and the bus barn! I'm showing a high in the low 80's so perfect weather for a cold slush!
The Valley Falls Rotary Club members John Hamon and Gary Coleman handed out personalized books to the 1st graders titled "I Like Me." The 5th Graders received "A Student's Dictionary."
Thank you to them both and to The Valley Falls Rotary Club!
