We celebrate March is Reading month with many guest readers!   Can you guess who these famous people are????

                                                                                               Third grade students were selected to go shopping with Meijer gift cards for games for Literacy Night.  These games will be raffled off to students completing tasks at Literacy Night.  They did a GREAT job managing their money and choosing games their peers will enjoy.  Thank you Meijer for your donation!!!

First grade students in Ms. Hamdan’s class are checking out their scores on our Data Wall.  They are winners because they know their goals and have their eyes on the target.  Way to go Salina Stars!!!!

Thank you to the parents who were able to attend our meeting this morning.  Here is a copy of the presentation.  As always, please let me know if you have any questions.  I am here to serve you and your children!!!  https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1TtKqFcbJ6DO6z_n-FfF9MH2Mr6VVhCXz9J04mWExoZM/edit#slide=id.p

Students in grades 1-3 who continually demonstrated our three rules –

were invited to watch a movie with their friends Friday afternoon!!!

Way to go Salina Stars!!!

Students in Mrs Ali’s class donated money they previously raised for the city of Flint.  They wrote the Mayor telling her to use the money to buy things they need so children can drink clean water.  As a school, Salina kids will be bringing in more money so we can add to their donation. 

Congratulations to our super Students of the Month!!!

I spoke with the students this week about Dr. Martin Luther King. I told them the story that Dr. Martin Luther King’s father told him when he was a little boy. It went something like this……

When Martin was a little boy, experiencing the bigotry and inequalities as the result of the color of his skin, he became very angry. So angry, that he would fight. One day, his father sat him down and spoke to him about his anger. He told him that we are all born with “seeds of greatness.” Every time we do the right thing, our seeds of greatness grow. When we do something wrong, those seeds don’t grow. We must always do the things that will make our seeds of greatness grow. We must fight prejudice , ignorance and wrong doings with words and peaceful actions.

Have a wonderful weekend. I am not in town for the Dearborn March this Monday, but I will be there in spirit. I am so proud to be part of this beautiful community!!!
