In honor of Homecoming week's Punny Monday, the 4th and 5th graders played Punny Bingo this morning in Mrs. O'Neal's class. A couple of their favorites: What award do you give the dentist? A little plaque. What do you say to the man who invented zero? Thanks for nothing!

3rd grade had our first ESU Science lesson with Patrick this week! We investigated dry ice and got to taste some dry ice root beer!




CHANGE IN GAME TIME: There will be a 4:30 PM start for the game on Friday v Kenesaw in Deshler due to a lighting issue on the field. The meal deal will still be served by FFA, and the chamber will still serve the teams a meal after the game. Gates will open at 3:30 PM.


Come and cheer on the Lady Dragons in Franklin! First serve is at 5 against the Flyers and vs. the Blue Devils at 6!
