CARNIVAL!

To celebrate another successful quarter of our students being safe, respectful and responsible, PTA outdid themselves with an amazing carnival right here in the Horace Mann gym.  There were two sessions, one for students in grades PK-2 and another for kids in grades 3-5.  Each session was 75 minutes packed with fun!

Students were able to choose the activities they wanted to do, including face painting, tattoos, sack races, ping pong ball toss, guess the amount of candy in a jar (the closest guess from each class got to keep the jar of candy), bean bag toss, bead bracelet making, Legos (a quiet activity in the hall for kids who wanted a break from the noise and active play inside), drawing on a huge poster (another quiet activity in the hallway), balloon animal making, a popcorn machine, and more.  PTA Event Chair Kristy Gibbons and her amazing team of volunteers were able to put together an event that will be talked about for years to come.

There is still one bit of suspense from the carnival:  Which class will win the pizza party?  Each time a student participated in a station, s/he received a ticket.  Teachers collected the tickets, and the class with the most tickets will win a pizza party.  We plan to announce the winner on Monday :-)

Thank you to everyone who made this event a total blast.  It was a true instance of our school motto:  All In...ALL THE TIME!
