Think You Might Like This!

Nothing like life in our hometown, Lawrenceville, Illinois. 
It's almost Christmas & another project 5th graders in Mrs. Waggoner's class are involved
in is  collecting canned goods for others.  Now that's a great plan, kind of "magical!"

"Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try."

Our 5th graders are collecting dog & cat food,
to make a donation to the Lawrence County Humane
Society before we start winter break on December 21st.
Thanks in advance for helping them make a difference.

Thank You Anita Tuttle & Young Artists!

Have you seen the Smiley Faces up on the square?   This artwork is designed as a part of The Lawrence County Courthouse Restoration Project.  School children from The St. Francisville Christian Academy, as well as those in Units #10 & 20 participated in creating the faces.  Mrs. Tuttle organized Parkside Elementary's contribution.  Enjoy the new "look" while the Counthouse Clock is being repaired.    We can learn more by following the project and progress here:
