Spring program off to a great start!

Our spring program kicked off Monday at Maple Elementary. We started strong with a day of soccer in the pouring rain and yesterday moved inside for some writing exercises. The kids wrote and drew their views on makes a hero and what kind of hero they'd be. Answers ranged from an environmental superhero who makes eco-friendly cars, an economic superhero who fixes the problems facing the U.S. economy, and one who provides shelter for the homeless. Our kids continue to inspire the staff at SCORES!

Check out some pictures from yesterday's writing sessions: Picasa album.
