Several classrooms throughout the district celebrated the 100th day of school with special activities. Pictured here are students from Mrs. Mudget’s Kindergarten class at Starr Elementary. These Kindergarten students had lots of fun doing their 100th day activities - 100 exercises, counting and writing to 100, reading a take home book called Counting to 100, counting out 100 treats and then putting them into their own bag for a trail mix and making 100 day necklaces/crowns! What a fantastic day for these Rock Starrs!
