Mrs. Patterson invited Superintendent Mr. Sheets as a guest reader this morning to read his own artistic creation: a book he wrote titled "A Frog is a Frog," inspired by the stories he tells his granddaughter. The unique book allows readers to create their own illustrations to follow along with the story.
"A Frog is a Frog" tells the story of a frog who desperately wants to be a bird, but with encouragement from his fellow frog friend, he realizes that he is special just as he is and to be the best "you" that you can be!
If you have not done so already this school year, please be sure to complete the Free and Reduced Price Meal Application at https://www.myschoolapps.com/Application to check eligibility for helpful benefits.
