3rd - 6th Grade Spanish Program

Submitted by lindsey.smith on

Today the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth grade classes that participate in the Dual Immersion program shared a performance with the rests of the school. Each grade sang a song in Spanish, and several grades danced as well. All of the performers did a fantastic job, and the audience had a great time watching the show!

Staff Spotlight - Mrs. Franks

Submitted by lindsey.smith on

This week our Staff Spotlight is our incredible 6th grade teacher, Mrs. Franks. Mrs. Franks comes from Omaha, Nebraska and is the second oldest with four brothers and two sisters. She also has one niece, who she loves to visit every chance that she gets. Some of her favorite things to do include folk dancing, especially clogging, country dancing, mountain biking, playing tennis, and basketball. One very cool thing that you might not know about Mrs. Franks is that she has danced in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade! She also likes to travel and would love to see more of the world.
