💛🌈Friday, September 15th, was Dot Day, based off of the book, The Dot, written by Peter H. Reynolds. Prek-8th grade students as well as staff helped to create this colorful reminder at the front of our school - to be brave and to try new things! Many thanks to our lovely art teachers, Mrs. Alderman and Mrs. Olson, for creating the vision for this beautiful reminder. ☺️

Miss Waide’s PreK class had a blast💥recently making Friendship Salad! ☺️The bowl was their ‘school,’ the yogurt was their ‘nice friends,’ the blueberries were their ‘kind words’ and the strawberries were their ‘best effort.’ 🤗 They decided not to add the rotten banana or ‘mean friends, mean words, and not trying’ to the salad. 😉🙌🏻





Congratulations to our recent Golden Ticket recipients! Keep up the great work! 🎫⭐️👏🏻🥳🙌🏻

Morris Grade School Parents- At approximately 12:40 p.m., we received word that there was a strong gas smell in the kitchen area. Out of precaution, we evacuated the building and the Morris Fire Department did an investigation. They gave us the all-clear, and students have returned to their normal day. Our students and staff did an amazing job following instructions. We want to thank the Morris Fire Department for the quick and effective response.
