We truly love and appreciate our faculty and staff and our partners do too! What an awesome Teacher Appreciation Week! Our staff was blessed beyond measure by parents, Partners in Ed., the Admin. Team, and PTO. We even had a Mental Health/Wellness Day! https://t.co/BECnP709Ff

At Obama Elementary, we teach our students that…”Readers are leaders!” Our reading pep rallies were absolutely AMAZING today! Every student in the school left with a book of their choice, and a summer bridge workbook with lessons students can complete over the summer. 📚❤️🥰

It’s National Lunch Heroes’ Day so we celebrated our nutrition staff (Mrs. Washington, Ms. Reid, Ms. Holt, Ms. Harvey, Ms. Wainwright, and Ms. Vines) with gifts, cash, balloons and breakfast. We are incredibly grateful for their service, love, and dedication. 😋❤️👍🏽
