📚✨ Celebrating Read Across America Week! ✨📚
What a fantastic week full of books, creativity, and fun! From Magical Monday, where we dressed as our favorite fairytale and fantasy characters, to Topsy Tuesday, full of wacky mismatched outfits, to Reading is a Team Sport Thursday, where we showed our TC pride in our school gear, to Cozy Friday, where we snuggled up with a good book—we celebrated in style!
We also had some incredible special programming, including listening to Jeff Kinney through BookBreak (and even drawing alongside him! ) and diving into the research process with narrative nonfiction with author Steve Sheinkin. Plus, we put our creativity and writing skills to the test by creating our own comic strips!

After enjoying lunch in a campus dining hall, they headed to East Campus for another great tour. The day wrapped up with a visit at the UNL Dairy Store!
Due to the predicted inclement weather, today's JUNIOR HIGH track practice is canceled. Stay safe.
