Let's celebrate Right to Read Week with a Read-A-Thon starting Friday, March 15! Read-a-thons are a fun way to get your child excited about reading! It’s like a walk-a-thon, but we record minutes read instead of miles. It’s a great way to encourage our students in their love of reading. Activate your reader's account at https://www.read-a-thon.com/readers/r/323739343331/1, where families can record and track progress. Together, we can foster strong reading habits and a love for learning that will last a lifetime!

Our first-graders enjoyed a special visit from Hopewell Culture National Historical Park, where they interacted with tools used by Native American tribes, compared how life was different then vs. now, and learned about identifying animals in the wild by their fur patterns, paw prints, and bird calls. They did a great job recognizing many different species native to Ohio!

Our second-graders visited the Columbus Antheneum yesterday and enjoyed performances of The Three Little Pigs, Little Red Riding Hood, and more. They then visited the Old Barn at Dry Run Farms for lunch and learned how the Barnes family transported the historic 174-year-old venue barn to its current home. The students loved seeing the beautiful craftsmanship and discovering the importance of preservation.

Our Mustang Buddies had a wonderful time creating a heart mural and playing BINGO with their fellow buddies! Mustang Buddies is our after-school program that meets monthly at Westfall Elementary School and aims to create a positive and welcoming environment for preschool through 2nd-grade students. The program pairs them with mentors from grades 3-5, providing a unique opportunity to interact, learn, and grow together. The program aims to build self-confidence, improve social skills, and create a sense of belonging within the school community by developing positive relationships between our students. Mustang Buddies is a fantastic way to inspire young minds and help them grow into future leaders! We look forward to this program's growth and positive impact on our students.
