Parents - Thank you for helping and donating to the Piedras Positivas project. YOU made it possible. The students enjoyed painting the rocks with a special word and adding designs. We wouldn't have been able to do it without your time and generosity. Students will bring their rock home on Friday, March 8th. We look forward to students sharing the rocks and making other people happy. Thank you again, from the 3rd Grade Student Leadership Team.
