Thank You Community Shores Bank!

As part of the adopt a classroom program that is helping Rocket City, our classroom was adopted by Community Shores Bank! We cannot thank them enough and are so grateful for their support to our classroom, school and Rocket City! On Thursday, Jamie Sheffer from Community Shores Bank made a trip to our classroom so we could present her with a thank-you book we created! The kids were able to meet her and ask her a few questions! Thank you again Community Shores bank for your continuous support to the students of Rocket City!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I was so sad to hear that we had a snow day today, but I was glad everyone was kept safe! Since we did not get to have our Christmas party today, we will do a small celebration on Monday, January 6th when we return after break! We will still make our pine cone bird feeders, but will do it throughout the day!

Thank you to everyone who has donated items to our class and who planned to send in treats. I really appreciate it!

I want to finally wish all of you and your families an absolute wonderful and safe break. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Be sure to take some time each day (at least 20 minutes) to have your child read (and retell)!!

I look forward to seeing the kiddos on Monday, January 6th! Merry Christmas!
