"Texas Day" at the Fifth Grade Center

In support of victims of Hurricane Harvey, the FGC hosted "Texas Day" today (next Friday, we will host a "Florida Day").  Many students dressed in their cowboy/cowgirl best or favorite Texas sports team wear.  Our Fifth Grade students and staff raised $765! Students will get to vote soon on supplies to purchase to help a public elementary school in Houston get up and running again with some supplies following the devastating hurricane.  We will also be writing students letters of encouragement and sending some pictures of our school (in addition to purchasing supplies). Way to show the love for Texas today FGC!

"Open Lunch" Mondays with the Counselor

Today was our first official day of "Open Lunch" with the counselor.  Each Monday (during all four lunch periods), eight students may choose to come to the counselor's office to participate in some fun getting to know you games with their peers.  Today, we had a magnetic dart board competition and played "Would You Rather?"  I look forward to getting to know students better through these types of opportunities.
