Frosty's sister, Frostina, heard there were some pretty cool kids at the Lower, so she stopped by to see for herself.

Our 5th grade teachers planned a day of Colonial fun for their students to gain a greater understanding of the life during the period of time when our country's infancy, which is what they are studying in social studies. Three of our teachers have traveled to Williamsburg, VA to attend the Colonial Williamsburg Institute for teachers to learn some of the activities the did with the students during Colonial Days. Students created clay pinch or coil pots, whirly gigs, punched tin art, played games from that time period, learned about quills and wrote with them and churned butter. It was a great day!
Another amazing day at the Lower! Students who saved their positive behavior tickets went ice skating and enjoyed the bounce houses and giant slide. Thank you to the Berryman family and the YMCA. You brought 92 kids joy!
