We had such a fun week of dressing in black, beach wear, favorite holiday and backwards day. Our last day was anything but a cup day. Omgosh. Such great ideas!! 🤣 Our school week was busy with the book fair and science family night but we still spoiled all staff with nacho day, cinnamon roll and juice breakfast, homemade sticky popcorn, making your own trail mix, cute gifts in between and the last day was fun blowup drink holders and " you're all that and a bag of chips" day. Thank you to our Dateland Staff for always stepping up and giving when you're needed. 🐾 Here are a few pics that didn't make it on the original posts.
