Last Friday, 103 students practiced their magic while building on their word work skills!


402 had a dance party for being on task, engaged in their learning & trying their best!

401 and 502 both earned rewards for their attendance and SOARing skills in the hallway. Their reward was to take a mini field trip to Fire Station 5. During their time there they got a tour of the fire house, looked at the tools on the inside and outside of the fire trucks, and got to ask the firefighters lots of questions. Thank you to the firefighters for giving us your time and teaching our students about fire safety!



Terry Redlin staff got to experience a "glimmer" today, with a puppy party! "Glimmers give us a calm, peaceful and joyful state. They are micro moments of goodness that help our body to restore to our thriving state of being. They reduce emotional distress and can help us be more in our learning zone" Thanks Tverberg family.



Thanks to our friends at Delta Kappa Gamma! They helped make PICTURE DAY full of SMILES.

American Legion Post 15 was at Terry Redlin today to talk about Flag Etiquette with our 4th grade students. Thank YOU Post 15!
