I can read on a slide. I can read upside down. I can read off the ground. I can read sitting down. I can read in the shade. I can read in the sun. Reading anywhere is lots of fun.

Grade 1 students, along with their teachers, and music teacher Ms. Layne Wilson, took their spring musical, Circus, Circus on the road! The students performed for an audience at the Trezevant Assisted Living Facility. The residents truly enjoyed the visit and the performance!

Ms. Brenda Berry, Communications Director, brought her Ball Python "Cookie Dough" to school. SK students reached out and made a new friend.
