There was definitely hustle and bustle at Archie Elementary today! Our day kicked off with greetings from You Matter and the Grinch, followed by our monthly celebration. Congratulations to our Students of the Month for demonstrating compassion!
We also presented class trophies for our Specials Classes of the Month, recognized our Whirlwind Buck winners, and celebrated birthdays with You Matter treats. A special shout-out to Casey’s for donating Whirlwind Buck donut certificates—thank you for your support!
Buddy the Elf even stopped by for a special visit, spreading holiday cheer and handing out candy canes to all of our students. The day wrapped up with classroom parties and warm holiday wishes. Thank you to our room parents for helping make parties a success!
Enjoy winter break, everyone—and don’t forget the reading and math challenge!
