It's looking and feeling a little more like fall! Please make sure your child comes to school prepared for cooler temperatures. We ask that all students bring a jacket to school. Thank you!
Students in Ms. Golden’s second grade class are learning to take ownership of their learning! Each child identified an academic goal, created a plan to achieve it in their writing journals, and added it to our “Goal Getters” bulletin board. This visual reminder encourages reflection, perseverance, and progress toward mastery! #OHEistheplacetobe
