DESCRIPTION OF CURRENT YOUTH/CHILDREN'S SERVICES

I love my job. I had previously taught only high school with one year at junior high. I had no idea that I would love this age group, 4th and 5th grades, so much. I just wish I'd decided to get this degree 20 years earlier!

This is me in my library!

 

Kathleen Trenchard

We celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month by welcoming Kathleen Trenchard from CUT-IT-OUT in San Antonio who demonstrated the art of "papel picado". The students then made their own papel picado.

 

A Thousand Cranes

We enjoyed the Second Youth Theatre's performance of "A Thousand Cranes," after reading the book, Sadako.

 

Our parade

We also have a literary parade each year!

 

Computer cake fun

We also had a computer cake to thank the students who made our Intermediate School Website!
