This week's student spotlight goes out to the 3rd grade students. "During recess, a student lost a very important item. 3rd grade students immediately stopped playing and started looking for the lost item. When the item was found, so many students checked in with the student to make sure he felt better and was okay. 3rd grade students show empathy and kindness in so many ways! This was just one of many examples of how amazing this group of students are. " Great job Koalas!
