Mrs. Flanigan caught these students showing good character in October!



Lunch Bunch with Mrs. Flanigan is something our students always enjoy, but it's even better when it's November and you can eat outside. We want to thank the Delwood PTO for donating two picnic tables for our students and staff to use and enjoy!

Second grade students collected the most coins during our coin drive for the book fair. They were treated to an ice cream party with lots of syrup, sprinkles, whipped cream, cherries and sticky goodness.
