Happy FRYday! Second grade students practiced writing persuasive letters this week. Some tried to persuade staff that we should have french fries every day for lunch. While everyday fries is not an option, a special french fry snack was a fun way to end the week.
Thanks to Damn Near Home for the fries and supporting our students!
