Preschool gets a visit from Santa Claus

The preschool students were pleasantly surprised today when Santa Claus arrived handing out gifts. The boys were wild over their toy cars, while the girls loved their baby dolls. Some of the students sang Christmas songs to Santa. Santa even sang along with them. It was a wonderful way to start the Christmas vacation.

Mr. Bill visits 2nd grade

On Monday, Dec. 14th, Mr. Bill from the TN Aquarium visited 2nd grade to talk about his "Creepy, Crawly" friends. Mr. Bill showed the students a tarantula, a legless lizard, a snake, a gecko, and a millipede. Mr. Bill let the students touch the snake and three of the student's even got to let the millipede crawl across their hands! What a fun and exciting day!!

Christmas Caroling

The preschool classes Christmas caroled around the school. The children sang three songs "Jingle Bells", "Rudolph the red nosed reindeer" and "We wish you a merry Christmas". Everyone had a great time singing and those watching even joined in. We hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas.
