Mrs. Cloonan's class has had a wonderful start to 2nd grade! They have learned about having a growth mindset and teamwork. They also go to meet Dr. Fair to learn the difference between fair and equal to be able to recognize that everyone has different needs to be successful!

Today for our Community Helpers lesson, we had a very special visitor in Mrs. Cleveland’s classroom! 🇺🇸❤️Zachary Thompson, a United States Marine, came to read to our students and share about his experience serving in the military.
