🎃🍁 Oh, What a FUN Friday! 🍁🎃

In Ms. Elizabeth and Mrs. Willa’s Pre-K class, the bees took a little adventure outside the classroom today. We had the BEST time at the pumpkin patch! 🧡

There were lots of smiles, giggles, excitement, and memories made! Watching our little friends explore and enjoy themselves made the day even more special! 🥰

We may have come back a little tired, but our hearts were full! ❤️

Days like today remind us why we love what we do! These are the moments our little learners will remember, and we are so happy we got to share them together! 🐝💛

🎃🍂 Pumpkin patches, little hands, big smiles, and sweet memories! 🍂

Parents/Guardians,

A little bit about our PE program. The PE department participates in the Eat Move Grow program. (eatmovegrow.us) It is a grant. The school board has not purchased equipment for PE programs in many years. It is up to us to find a way to replenish our equipment. This grant not only allows us to purchase equipment, but Mrs. Melise comes to our school 4 times a year to teach the students about their heart, the importance of being active, oral health, and eating healthy.
We also have Mrs. Henrietta. She is with LSU Ag. She comes 1 day a week for 6 weeks and teaches the students about the importance of eating healthy and being active..
Also, we participate in the Marathon Kids program. (marathonkids.org) It is free. We have a small ⅛ mile track on our playground. The program allows us to track the students laps/miles with QR Codes. They move at their own pace. The students receive certificates for their progress. We do it once a week. We also discuss the importance of taking care of their hearts.
We are looking forward to working with your children.



During the year, I will be sending you information about Virtual Races. You can register for a race and you do the 5K at home, gym, or wherever you would like to. You can walk or run at your pace. The registration fee goes to different charities. This is how to find the Turkey Trott virtual race. Go to Chalk Talk Sports and click on Virtual Races on the left side of the top tool bar. All of the information you need is there and the name of the charity you will be supporting. Enjoy the walk/run.

Marathon Kids is the best youth running program! Get kids running with our free activity-tracking app and running club management platform.
