Congratulations to sophomore Colin Whyte for placing 4th in the PIAA Southwest Regional tournament this weekend. He secured his trip to Hershey winning 5-3 in an exciting overtime match in the bloodround. Colin will wrestle in the PIAA state tournament in Hershey, Pennsylvania March 7th through the 9th. Good Luck!
We had a wonderful week celebrating Read Across America! Thanks to all the guest readers for helping us celebrate. We finished up with some buddy reading with first and second grade. Book Madness is just beginning. Can't wait to see which book wins for 2024. Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!
And the tournament begins! Grades K-2 and grades 3-6 are having their very own March Madness bracket-style book tournaments throughout the month. Every day, students will cast a vote between two books. At the end of the month, we will find out the ultimate champion!
Kindergarten ended Read Across America week with one last special guest reader - our very own Officer Wood!
