What a wonderful surprise it was to come outside for recess and find tons of fallen leaves. Miss Fulcher and Mrs. Underwood's classes had a blast playing in the leaves. They even got to throw them at Miss Fulcher! We love fall.

Happy "World Kindness Day" from Cary Wright!
We can always count on Mr. Wright to be creative in the classroom! According to Mr. Wright's Facebook post, he grew up with Mr. Rogers. It was only appropriate that he celebrated World Kindness Day by dressing as one of his heroes. The likeness is uncanny - you nailed it!

The program at Schoolfield Elementary focuses on young ladies being leaders in our community and in society. Recently, Mr.Jim Mullian, a paramedic from The Danville Life Saving Crew, came to talk to the girls about being a person of good character, work ethic, and how it helped him move up the tiers with the crew. He’s been with the Crew for over a decade. He was also the one who gave our girls Hands-Only CPR training experience at the 2019-20 Danville-Pittsylvania Heart Walk & 5k at Averett University. The girls are currently accepting donations of personal items to take to area nursing homes. If anyone would like to donate items please contact Ms. Brown ( Westwood) or Ms. Pyles ( Schoolfield). #partnershipsmatter
