Thanksgiving is almost here! I hope that your family have a wonderful break, plenty of delicious food to eat, and time to be together and count your blessing. Although counting your blessing is not a new idea I often forget to reflect on mine and remember that there are many people who have bigger problems than I do. I am thankful for my job. I am thankful for all the excitement that my students bring to this time of year. I am thankful for the people I work with, each bringing something unique to our school and your child's education. It is good to be part of Fair Grove Elementary School.
Third and 4th grade students are practicing good citizenship in Kids' Club this week by creating patriotic cards and notes for the school's Shoe Box for Soldiers Campaign. We are writing notes to thank the soldiers for their service to our country. We have learned that good citizens thank the men and women who have fought and continue to fight to keep our country safe and free. We will include our notes in the shoe boxes to the soldiers.
