We kicked off our Kindness Week yesterday with 2 quotes about being kind (written by students) read on the intercom. Our quotes were: "If you have a choice between being right and being kind, choose kind," by Kenzie Baird and "Be the big umbrella on someone's raing day" by Caleb.
Our 6th Graders wrote to The White House in November about the annual Turkey Pardoning. They were excited to receive a letter back from the President along with some bookmarks for each student.

Mrs. Hill is the Librarian here at Spanish Oaks. She is from Tennessee and grew up there. Mrs. Hill would be an uber driver if she wasn't a teacher because she wants to meet new people, and go to new places. She has been a Librarian for two years at Spanish Oaks and she loves it. When she was a kid her favorite subject was reading because she always loved to read. Mrs. Hill’s favorite holiday is Thanksgiving because of family and June is her favorite month because there is no school.
