SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS
Last week our students celebrated the 100th day of school with lots of fun math and literacy activities that involved the number 100. Did you know that to say 73 he French say 60 and 13, or that to say 95 they say 4 times 20 and 15? Yes, our kids are quite the mathematicians now! It is so exciting to see all 100 ways our students are expanding their minds, making new friends and acquiring lasting skills that will help them in the future! Thank you to all parents, staff members and teachers who helped make this a 100% perfect day!
