Yeehaw...This week we held our Kindergarten Roundup. We had approximately 70 incoming kindergarten students and their families attend. The students were able to play and be screened while their parents/guardians learned all about Morris Grade School and Kindergarten. They also had an opportunity to meet with our staff; like the social workers, librarian, administrators, kindergarten teachers, school nurse, parent educator and cafeteria director. The Morris Hospital YMCA was also onsite with information on their programs. The event was a success and we are excited to welcome these little learners to Morris Grade School in August!
