📚 What a special morning in Mrs. Lange’s 3rd-grade classroom!
We were thrilled to welcome local children’s author Mike Gillette as a guest reader today. Mike shared his heartwarming book, Elias Takes the Stage, which was inspired by his amazing grandson—a Tri-C student who is awesome inside and out (and always rocking his signature bowtie! 👔✨).
Our 3rd graders got a peek behind the curtain as Mike explained his creative process, sharing how he brought the story to life and how authors collaborate with illustrators to make books come alive. The students had so many great questions about writing and publishing, and Mike answered them all!
Thank you, Mr. Gillette, for inspiring our young readers and future authors today! 🌟📝

🦁 PBIS Quarter Days are coming to Tri-C! 💙🧡

🍿 Popcorn
🍬 Candy — Starburst, Skittles, suckers & more
☀️ And sometimes even popsicles!
The best part? All money raised through Quarter Days goes right back to our students! Funds are used to help purchase prizes and incentives for our ROAR Store.
