Taylor Elementary's third grade students delighted the school and parents each Christmas with their performance of an "All American Christmas".  This year's performance was a showcase of favorite songs from around the country showcasing the joys of the Christmas traditions that are shared.  Teachers Cammie Charles, Melanie Ellsworth and Robin Provstgaard enjoy watching the children learn and perform songs as well as speaking parts that even included a special musical number using musical instruments.

Taylor Elementary students have been doing a lot of reading each night as part of being "Unstoppable!" at school. Students were awarded a tickets for meeting their weekly reading requirement and those tickets were put into a drawing at the annual "Shooting for Bucks" assembly!   Students gathered in the gym for another exciting assembly where avid reader, Mr. Daybell, passed out money and prizes each time a name was drawn from the pile!   Several students had read so much during the year, their names were pulled multiple times!

Monday, January 20th is Martin Luther King Day.  There will be no school this day.

Thanks,

Mr. Daybell

Taylor's sixth-grade orchestra students delighted the school with their first school-wide performance as well as a parent program.  Under the direction of Mrs. Drager, this is Taylor Elementary's second student orchestra group that is open to sixth-grade students.  Students that are involved meet before school starts and are expected to practice each night at home.   The school was amazed to hear the talented musicians play traditional favorites as well as a few Christmas songs. Several students were even given the chance to debut as soloists.

Box Top Winners were announced this morning by Mrs. Liddle.   Mrs. Groneman and Mr. Hansen's classes each earned a pizza party by brining in the most Box Tops for our school!   Box Tops are a great way to help earn money for our school to buy things that are needed.  Congratulations to these two classes for helping making our school the great place it already is!
