Happy Thanksgiving! Third graders were very creative in their turkey disguises this year. Each class voted on their favorite disguises and here are the results.
Mrs. Riipinen’s 3rd grade class read Balloons Over Broadway this week. A story about how Tony Sarg’s ideas led to the giant Macy’s Day Parade balloons. The third graders then got to design and create their own balloon animals.
With the help of Second Harvest North Central Food Bank, the Spartan Food Pantry was able to distribute 21 bags of food to families who needed it. Supplies are now gone. We hope to have another Spartan Food Bag Giveaway in December prior to the holiday break. ~ Brandi Lautigar, N-K School Social Worker
