November At A Glance

Posted November 3, 2023

Hello Dragon Families,

November, came in with its crisp autumn air and colorful leaves decorating the schoolyard. Cozy classrooms and a sense of togetherness set the tone for a promising month of learning and camaraderie.

Dance A Thon Update:

The Dance-A-Thon was an enormous success, as the community came together to dance with unwavering enthusiasm. It was heartwarming to witness participants giving their all, moving to the beat to support their school. The Jean Little Community showed exceptional solidarity, providing unwavering support throughout the days leading up to the event. The initial goal of raising $7,000 was not only met but exceeded, with an astounding $9,000 collected, showcasing the incredible determination and generosity of our community. The Dragons, as the event’s driving force, deserve applause for their dedication and hard work. Their efforts have made a meaningful impact, benefiting our school and showcasing the power of coming together for a great cause.
