- Thank you!!! - We were the top class in the whole school in raising money for Elsa England's Run Wild for Wildlife. Our class donated over $444.00 for wildlife and forest protection. Nice job!! Also, "thank you" to Maia's mom and Viraj's mom for supplying our class with more Kleenex tissue boxes! We needed it! Last but not least, thank you to Myra's mom for coming in and working with all the 3rd graders last week with a propagation activity using fig cuttings!! Dia's mom and Sanjana's mom came in to help with this fun activity. We have amazing parents!
