On Monday November 14, 2011 in recognition of American Education Week we had the privilege to have a school board member Kevin Keller read the book “The Three Javelinas” to our 2nd and 3rd grade ELL students The children enjoyed listening to the story and to participate in reading the coyote’s part ” I’ll huff and puff and blow your house in.” This is always a great experience for our students to have a a community member share their love of reading!

Visit to Bryan Hospital
Wow! December has been exciting for our students.
We learned to sing some fun American songs; “We wish you a Merry Christmas”, “Up on the rooftop” and “Jingle Bells”. We then walked over to Bryan Hospital to perform our songs for the hospital staff. The students gave a wonderful performance and felt so good about the gift of joy they brought to the hospital.
Getting ready to sing Jingle Bells
