On Monday, May 7th, the students at Spanish Oaks witnessed the sliming of many teachers, students and even Mrs. Huff, our principal.

Students set monthly reading goals and worked hard to meet them throughout the year, and to improve and progress in reading. Photos of students and teachers being slimed
