A Busy Week!

Thank you to Michelle Nelson-Schmidt and her inspiring message of perseverance this week.  Our students were encouraged to keep working hard after their dreams and doing what "lights" them up.  We had some great insights and reflections afterwards and many aspiring to be authors and illustrators just like Michelle.    

Both our OBOB teams competed this Saturday in our regional county tournament.  Each team battled hard.  Our 3rd-5th grade team learned about the intensity of the competition and learned that perseverance is hard work.  We hope to use what we learned in our losses to make us stronger for the next time.  

Our 6th-8th team made it into the Sweet 16 round and came close to moving on.  I am proud of the hard work that both these teams put into this competition but prouder still of the way they encouraged and congratulated their opponents.
