Mrs. Patton's Art 1 classes teamed up with Mrs. Sloan's second graders for the second year in a row. Two of Mrs. Sloan's art classes designed Squishmallows, and Mrs. Patton's 8th graders made them "come to life" by sewing them into Squishmallows.







Book Blast Celebration!

Thank you to our PTO for providing donuts and juice for the celebration.


LES Authors
Mrs. Threlkeld’s first grade class recently became published authors! Their class book, Once Upon a First Grade Tale, brings fairy tales to life through their creativity and hard work. It is an incredible accomplishment for these young writers!
