Gigi, a first grader in Mrs. Canchola's class, says her favorite classroom activity is when her class does centers. "I like to do centers because we learn and have fun at the same time. Spelling Bee and Learning.com are two of my favorites. I also love to read on Epic."

Mrs. Patterson from West Heritage is giving John Delise from our M&O department a high five today! This week, he visited her classroom for a repair and knowing HVAC systems are very important to one of her students, he took the time to explain what the parts and pieces were of the system to her eager, excited, and now engaged student. She wants to thank John for making her student's day, week, and year so special, and help continue the love of learning through alternate means!
