Principal’s Corner
No School? What do you do? Snow, Ice ... have a snowman competition of course!
Congratulations to all the competitors and creative enthusiasts who sent in so many creative, cute,
and amazing snow creations. We can only award one winner in each category which made it
difficult to do. There was the tallest snowman at 8’4” (Mathews, St. Johns), the fattest snowman
creation at 185” round (Kalber’s), and so many wonderful School Spirit snowmen to choose from.
We can only award one winner for the School Spirit, and that award goes to the Sharps for their
colorful royal blue and white rendition of Frosty. Winners will be awarded a $10 scrip card to
Wendy’s. Thank you all again for your innovative school spirit
and joy in making our snow days memorable. Enjoy the photos.
Tallest - Mathews and St. Johns
