💧Water Party!💧
Mrs. McVay’s final class (Ms. Blinzler’s Homeroom) officially earned their Water Party after completing 300+ Freckle lessons with 100% accuracy! 🎉👏
Freckle is an online program that gives students practice at their individual level in reading and math, helping them grow at their own pace. Their dedication, focus, and hard work truly paid off!
Last week they celebrated in style with Fun Dip, choosing their favorite water flavors, and adding a sweet twist with candy. 🍬🥤
