Previously in the Third Grade, some sparkly ducks had flocked to Mr. Liechty's room. His class was able to catch most of them, but they think a few retreated to Mrs. Pelletier's classroom. To help her class out, Mr. Liechty's class caught some predators to slither after the stragglers. I wonder what will happen next time in the Third Grade . . .
HS band had a Thank You concert last night for the supporters and donors that helped the students go to New York last month.
