Our Colts love specials! Here are a few pictures of the learning happening with Mrs. Ryder in music class.

Our student leadership team spent the day caroling in the community yesterday. We are proud of these Colts and their work to give back to our community. Thank you to Nurse Amanda and Ms. Bates for organizing this and working with our student leaders.

We have Reindeer Readers today! Mrs. Montoya's class enjoyed listening to a story from their reader.

Please take a moment to look at our lost & found. We would love to get this cleared out and belongings returned before the holiday break. If you see something that belongs to your Colt please reach out to their homeroom teacher.

Yesterday we were able to spend a little time in our houses. The house of dreamers had a great time decorating a waffle cone to turn it into a tree!

Check out our school's Beanstack Mid-Year Progress Report. Our Colts have logged 301,976 minutes! Way to go, Colts!

The deadline to log 1000 minutes for a Rock Lobster ticket is quickly approaching! Mrs. Crowder has sent home half sheets of paper for students who have already met this goal. This paper must be returned to Mrs. Crowder by the end of the day on Friday, December 19th, for your information to be submitted to the Rock Lobster team. Mrs. Crowder will continue checking to see who has met this goal through Thursday. Please be sure to send in the paper by Friday. If you have misplaced your paper, please reach out to your child's homeroom teacher so we can send another copy home.

Congratulations to these remarkable readers! These Colts logged their reading on Beanstack every day last week. Way to go, Colts!

Do you have the Beanstack App? At DES, we love to celebrate our students and their successes! Logging your child's reading at home is one way we can reward their efforts! Please see the image for instructions on logging in to Beanstack.

For December, we have a bingo challenge on Beanstack. There is a digital bingo board on Beanstack. Please see the image for more information on logging your FROSTY books!

Students who complete the FROSTY challenge will receive a prize from the library!

We love seeing our Colt Families in the community! The Kirk family enjoyed the Elberton Christmas Parade this past weekend.
