Monday Message

Lowell Happenings
Our annual month of March reading challenge is up and running! This year's theme is the Olympics! Each grade level represents a different team sport and we, as a school, are working towards a reading goal of 3,600 hours! There will be a lot of fun and prizes along the way. To kick off the month, students read together with their buddies last week and the reading department, Ms Steim, and I ran with our Olympic "torches" throughout the school to open up the events. It was so much fun (and tiring)!
