Our student-favorite Pencil Store is officially open and being run by our amazing 5th graders! Through this hands-on experience, students are learning valuable skills like entrepreneurship, customer service, responsibility, and teamwork. Best of all, they get to put those skills into action while running a business for their fellow students. It's a huge hit and always buzzing with excited shoppers!

The after school program, Double AACES, runs Monday-Thursday until 5:00 pm. Your child must be registered to attend.

You can complete registration at https://newcastle21cclcprograms.weebly.com/ .

For additional information, contact Tamera Allen at 746-6813.

Each Friday we tell a joke or two on morning announcements. Jokes are a great way to help build vocabulary and have a little fun! If your child has a joke to share, have them write it down and bring it to the office. It might get chosen to share on the morning announcements!

Why do fish not play basketball?

Because they're scared of the net!

This year we are also sharing FUN FACTS! Here is one from this week:

Despite being different colors, Froot Loops are all the same flavor.

This is a fun book and gives a great idea to help us encourage simple kind acts.

Thank you for letting us be a part of your child's educational journey. If you ever have any questions, concerns, or ideas please contact me. I am here to help and value your input.
