MLG 4th graders had to use context clues to figure out which reindeer ran over grandma!









MLG 4th and 5th grade students had the opportunity to audition for speaking parts in our upcoming performance of Jingle Bell Jukebox: The Flip Side. These students have been practicing their parts every week after school with Mrs. Pratt.
All grade levels are able to come and perform, as they have been practicing during their art/music specials every week. The performance is on Thursday, 12/19. K-2 will perform at 5 pm, and 3-5 will perform at 5:30. Remember to RSVP if your student plans to perform.
We hope to see you there!
