Our 1st group of Student Morning Announcers! This year, 5th graders can apply to be a "Morning Announcer" and have the soaring responsibility of sharing daily information over the intercom. Today was our first day and this group did an outstanding job! (Ask your 5th grader what it takes to be a Morning Announcer. There might be a future broadcaster in our school!)
