GRANDPARENTS DAY
By Chaya Stillerman
Tu Beshvat this year was celebrated with the people we love most our grandparents! Students were able to show their grandparents all the fantastic work they accomplished so far this year. Together students and their grandparents played an exciting game. In honor of Tu Beshvat, the tree's birthday grandparents and students took home fruit trees to plant and grow. The day ended with a nice lunch and the third-grade choir with their fabulous singing.
