Congratulations to the fourth graders for winning the November Myon reading contest. They will be rewarded with a popcorn party later this week. Due to Christmas break arriving in just a few weeks, there will be no Myon contest for the month of December. However, the next Myon reading contest will begin on January 6th when we return.
