It's the Start of a New Year in Flyer Time

Welcome back to school! This year, flyer time will meet five days a week (which is awesome). Some of that time will be devoted to reading for enjoyment. Students and teachers can choose what they want to read. Some classes voted to have a book club and are reading a novel together. Here are some pics from our first day of reading for fun!

SWAG Week!

This year, our annual SWAG (Spirit with a Goal) Week's focus was raising awareness and funds for the Syrian refugee crisis. Each day of the week, students and staff sported pjs, dressed like twins or their favorite Disney character, wore clothes from their favorite decade, and donned superhero costumes. After school activities included pie throwing, dodgeball, and trivia. Everyone had a great week! Check out the photos.

Back At It!

To jump-start the year off right, we started new interest groups this week. We are also focusing on a new character word this quarter, honesty, so flyer time activities will focus what it means to be honest.
