Last Day! Half Day! Birthday Thursday!

Hey, ya'll. In case you didn't know...Thursday is the last day of school. It's also a half day, and we'll be celebrating May and summer birthdays. We have lots to celebrate!

Civil War Museum

Thanks for coming today! We had so much fun showing you all what we've been working on the last couple of weeks. Our fourth and fifth graders worked very hard writing and memorizing scripts, coloring scenery, and of course learning all about the Civil War. Way to go, Fisher Baker kids!

Students of the Week 5/13

This weeks students of the week are Ruby and Andres!
 Both of these students have been nominated for being helpful. Ruby's classmate nominated her for helping with work they were confused on.  Andres was spotted at lunch being kind to a kid that didn't have anyone to eat with or play with. Thanks for looking beyond yourselves to help others, Andres and Ruby!
