We appreciate everyone who joined us for the opening on Tuesday and those who contributed supplies.

Mrs. O’Grady’s graders from Washington completed the “Monster Mayhem” project by writing essays on “How to Catch a Monster” using sequence words to plan their traps. They also brought their monsters to life through art, blowing paint with straws to create their own unique creatures. They ended with sharing their work in the “Author’s Bench” with their classmates.
