Kennedy

Wednesday was "Donuts for Grown Ups" at Kennedy Elementary. Lots of students, lots of parents and families, and lots of WHS Leadership students on hand as well, all present for the early morning gathering. An assembly followed the event, WHS Leadership Students Dominic Shore and Natalie Henning talked to the children about responsibility.  Students of the Month for October were announced - we'll have those for you, along with the other schools' honorees in early November!!

Mrs. Jennifer Wilmoth's 4th Grade Class at Kennedy Elementary has been part of a "Flat Stanley Adventure" recently, an adventure that began as a Flat Stanley project for the young Cardinals at Kennedy. But first, for those of you who may not be acquainted with "Flat Stanley", read this background info and then I'll share an exciting development with one of Kennedy's students and the adventure she created for her Flat Stanley.

The Kennedy 1st-2nd Grade Vocal Music Concert was held Monday evening at WHS with a large audience in attendance for the musical affair directed by Mrs. Linda Ballard. Alone and together, the 2 grades of Cardinals sang a total of 9 pieces, all written or arranged by Teresa Jennings, Paul Jennings and John Riggio. From"Wiggleworm/Statue" to "Follow the Rainbow" to "Music Makes Me Sing", the young group put on a great show. Enjoy the video!

The students and staff at Kennedy Elementary finished up their OLYMPIC events on Monday...Bobsled, Skating, Bingo, Snowball Throw, Moguls Skiing and more! Check out the competition pics - I think we may have some future OLYMPIANS in our midst!! :)
