A day or so ago, 5th Grader Samhir's Mom helped him out with his Extension Research Project over Food History stemming from the Ancient Aztec, Inca, and Maya civilization. Mrs. Brown helped Samhir make and share Pozole with our 5th graders (and some very lucky teachers). Thank you to Samhir, Mrs. Brown, and all of our families for supporting our students' learning and helping to make connections to things we know and love in our everyday life!
Our 1st graders want to go to the zoo!!! Help them fundraise by purchasing one of these AWESOME Plainsmen throws! Not only will you be helping our precious students, but you'll also be able to snuggle up and keep warm in your favorite colors!
