We are so proud of our students for working hard during the Fall i-Ready window!

To celebrate, they enjoyed a fun “Chips and Candy” incentive to remind them that:
“We are CHIPPER and CAN do our BEST!”

A big THANK YOU to our wonderful PTO for providing the chips and candy for our students!
And another big THANK YOU to our amazing students, parents, and teachers for working together to achieve success.

Every Child Shines when we all work as one!

Mrs. Ellis’s kindergartener group had a blast during center time as they worked on letter identification in fun, hands-on ways! They rotated through: • Letter Launchers • Treasure Letter Hunt • Letter Builder • Etch-a-Letter Flip Every child was engaged, learning, and having fun while building early literacy skills. Way to go, Kindergarten! #EveryChildShines #ElbaElementary #LetterFun #KindergartenLearning
