Hey, 2nd graders! Our Math Problem of the Day comes to you courtesy of Chris Vernon, Fox Sports Radio personality. Chris stepped it up by creating a skit that includes his adorable “neighbors”, Ms. Agnes & Mr. Edward (aka his kids). TY, Chris!

RT @SanMarcosUSD Thank you to all of the staff, students, and parents who helped to promote and celebrate kindness on our campus! A special thank you to Mrs. B @mkbeninger and the Kindness Ambassadors❤️ #carrillocoltscare

The Great Kindness Challenge continues at Carrillo! Students wrote TY notes to staff members. Today’s theme was Backwards Day & students & staff wore their shirts backwards. As one student put it, “You can’t take back mean words that were said so I’m wearing my shirt backwards.”

Day 5 of the Great Kindness Challenge! “You can’t beat kindness!”
