Congratulations to this Panther & Mr. Dom! They are the library's winners this year for "Thank a Teacher or Staff Member and Win a Pie" contest! Throughout the month of November, at book check out, students had the opportunity to write letters to different teachers and staff members that they were thankful for and why. We had over 200 letters! I drew one lucky letter, and this 5th grader won an apple pie and Mr. Dom won a gift certificate to go out to dinner! 🍕🥧
The rest of the letters were stuffed into staff's mailboxes for them to read over break! 🥰#thankful #grateful #happythanksgiving
