Love the celebrations from yesterday's St. Patrick's Day! Here is another collage of pics sent in from Mrs. McClenton and Mrs. Lewis. In Mrs. Lewis' class, not only did they wear green, but also made rainbows with pots of gold! The first grade students used their fine motor skills, a little imagination and followed instructions to create their own rainbows out of cereal, marshmallows, and pipe cleaners! They took this fun treat home. #GoBobcats #ALLIN #HopeForTheFuture

Jonathan Bradford and Tristan McMahan took two fourth grade classes to Texarkana’s Perot Theater’s presentation of Carnegie Hall’s Link up program. Mrs. Bush’s and Mrs. Waggoner’s class were in attendance.
Carnegie Hall’s link up program is an interactive curriculum that introduces students to the orchestra. Last Year’s program was “The Orchestra Rocks.” This year’s focus was “The Orchestra Swings.”
This musical educational program allows students to sing or play. A curriculum is provided in advance to prepare the students for this program. Special thanks to the TSO Symphony, R. Gray, the Magnet Program (team) Dr. Duke and Zac Hoglund. Special thanks to Dr. Jonathan Crossley for bringing this program to our attention last year.
We love seeing our educators working together and being celebrated!!
