Penny, penny, easily spent -
Copper brown and worth one cent.
Nickel, Nickel, thick and fat.
It’s worth 5 cents – I know that.
Dime, dime, little and thin.
I remember – you’re worth 10.
Quarter, quarter, big and bold.
It’s worth 25 – I am told!

Our Principal Mrs. Turner has turned our campus into a NO DOG ZONE. Many children are being frightened and we have some children with severe allergies. No Dogs in arms or even on leashes. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
Names practice is improving. please remember to help your child write their name the Kindergarten way. For Ex. “HILLARY” is incorrect, but “Hillary” is correct. The only letter that is capital is the beginning. The rest are lowercase. This will be on their kindergarten exit testing.
