AWESOME job to all our lawyers in Ms. Alvarez’s class!! On Friday, fourth grade held an environmental-themed debate! Students prepared their arguments and rebuttals, and competed for their team to be crowned the GREAT DEBATERS! We can’t wait to do this again!
It may have been snowing outside, but it was spring in the art room! Kindergarten learned how to make a tint by adding white to a color while finger painting these spring flowers! Thanks again to Southern Tiger Collective for donating the tempera! #CMSArtsEd
