Cats vs. Dogs

As parents visited Horace Mann for parent-teacher conferences last week, I was full of gratitude.  I felt grateful for the children whose work adorns the hallways and classrooms.  I felt it for the families who are raising their "little Rangers" with all the love in the world and found time in busy schedules to come and meet.  I felt it for the teachers who pour their hearts and souls into guiding the development of our students in every way imaginable. 

Of course, the setting of our school creates a well-cared for backdrop for the work we do and the fun we have.  This week, I want to spotlight our library media assistant, Mrs. Peggy Morris, for the efforts she puts into piquing kids' interest in books through regularly-refreshed bulletin boards and display cases.  She updated the case display near the office last week, and the kids will see it on Monday.  It is called Cats vs. Dogs, and while the foundation of the design is in place, an important feature is yet to come.  Soon, kids will be invited to bring pictures of themselves with their pet cat or dog to personalize the showcase to our own school.

Thank you, Mrs. Morris, for giving all of us one more reason to pay attention to books📖😊🐈🐶
