Our PTO movie night is Friday, January 24! Our students voted and here are the two movies they selected to view! Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and movies start at 6:00 p.m. We hope to see you then!
Before winter break, Ms. Lehman's class wrapped up their hair care unit in an exciting way—by visiting HCTC! 🏫✂️ Talented cosmetology students treated them to hair washes, styles, and even cuts. 💇♂️💇♀️
Thanks to all involved for making this memorable day possible! 👏❤ 🏴☠️

This week, we were honored to welcome quite a few guest readers. We had School Resource Officer Sgt. Combs read "A Police Officer’s Night Before Christmas," and Hannibal Fire Department's Training Officer Mark Kempker read "A Firefighter’s Night Before Christmas." We also had SSG Sally Clayton from the 3175th Military Police Company read "A Soldier's Night Before Christmas," Beau Vieman from Gracie Barra Hannibal read "The Grinch," and a delightful Tom and Becky duo read "There Was an Old Lady Who Built a Snowman" and "A Pirate's Night Before Christmas."
A special shoutout to the Hannibal Free Public Library for sending Ms. Amber and Ms. Sena to read "Polar Express" and "The Grinch." It was a wonderful week filled with storytelling and holiday spirit!
