Shout out to Nevaeh in Mrs. Titus's Preschool class! She was the first to complete the March Dr. Seuss reading challenge. Some of the tasks required were to read a book in the bath, in the dark, under a table, or with a friend, with a stuffed animal, wearing a hat, or read while having a snack! Congrats Nevaeh, we are proud of you!

Some fun snaps celebrating St. Patrick's Day last week in Mrs. Koop's All Day Class at Franklin Preschool. The kids built a trap and then the leprechaun destroyed their room, but.... left them clues for a sweet treat. :)

Mrs. Titus's class at Franklin Preschool set a classroom WIG (Wildly Important Goal) to read 2,000 books. They voted on their reward for reaching that goal and decided on a PJ party. Not only did they reach their goal, but they also surpassed it by SEVERAL HUNDRED books!
Last week students got to have their PJ party and also received extra playtime and a special snack that was provided by a parent! We are so proud of these kiddos and how they are going above and beyond!
