📚 Winter Break Reading BINGO Challenge Shoutout! ❄️ We are so proud of all of our students who kept reading over winter break! We talk a lot about how important consistency is, and it’s wonderful to see that effort continue outside of school. With winter benchmark testing coming up in the next two weeks, keeping that momentum going truly matters. Everyone has been working hard to become even stronger readers, and it shows! ✨ Special shoutout to our photo entry winners: Brentlee Anderson and Ava Harvey 🎉 They are the winners of Mrs. Lee’s drawing for submitting a picture for the Winter Break Reading Challenge. Brentlee and Ava, you can stop by Tuesday morning to collect your prize! 🤗 Way to keep reading and growing—so proud of you all and we are looking forward to seeing you all back in class tomorrow! ⚜️

We survived 67 days of school at Melcher-Dallas Elementary! ⚜️ The 6️⃣7️⃣ craze took over, so we did what Saints do best—came together and owned it. If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em… Saints style! 🙃🤗 Here are a few staff members that joined in on the fun!
