Congratulations to Mrs. Capstick's third grade class for winning the Silex R-1 Spring Book Fair Spare Change Drive! After all the money was counted, Mrs. McDonald's kindergarten class was only .42 ¢ behind, so both classes will celebrate with an ice cream party! As a school we raised over $970 to buy books. Scholastic will match our donations and give back to multiple literacy charities. Don't forget the Spring Book Fair is next week! The fair will be open until 7:30 PM on Family Reading Fun Night! There is also a chance to win a $25 book fair gift certificate if you purchase a book for one of our classrooms!
