SIXTH GRADE DANCE = HUGE SUCCESS!

SIXTH GRADE DANCE = HUGE SUCCESS!

The 6th Grade Dance was wild and a great time for all of the kids who went to it. The music was cranked at full blast, playing songs by Ke$ha, Will.i.am, and L.M.F.A.O with snacks such as red vines, cookies, popcorn, and beverages such as water and lemonade.

An anonymous student said, “It was wild and supervised. It was great!”

“The photobooth was my favorite part,” said a sixth grader named Alyssa.

The same anonymous student also said, “My favorite song was probably ‘Party rock anthem.’” The majority of 6th graders interviewed agreed with him.

Although the dance was a huge hit, there have been a few complaints about how loud the music was and that it should have been turned down.

Most sixth graders agree, the dance was a huge, wild, and fun success.

The second story is that Valentine was killed for attempting to help Christians break out of the cruel Roman prisons. There is a legend that when Valentine was imprisoned, he fell in love with the jailer's daughter. On death row he sent her a letter signed, “From your Valentine.” Doesn’t t...

December Haiku

December Poetry By Juliette  Cold sting of winter air Bites with frozen jaws at the Warmth of our small toes Made it out of clay And when it’s dry and ready Dreidel I shall play We wake up to that Lovely smell of Christmas pine And the early fog Snow fades beneath feet Snowflakes glide to eyelashes Cocoa burns young tongues Crisp rips of paper Bows torn off, smiles then brighten Makes a happy mess My dry, old hands soothe My very chapped lips that sting Looking for chapstick Holidays are done Appreciative of my gifts Leaving family  Gg
