Happy Birthday to Miss Ally!

Miss Ally loves on all our kiddos but especially our smallest bluebirds! She helps wherever she is needed and works so hard- this has led to her having her own classroom this year where she is ready to shine! She is prepared to tackle this year- making sure every one of her students is on the path to success! We are so thankful to have her back in the Bluebird family!

Hope your birthday was wonderful!

Happy Happy Birthday to the phenomenal Mrs. Weber!!

Mrs. Weber is the most gracious and empathetic teacher you’ll ever meet! The way she develops relationships and builds up her students is truly unmatched. Then- to top that off- she teaches them and makes it fun! She digs in deep, knows what they need to know, and isn’t afraid to do the hard work necessary to make sure her lessons are ready to go! She worked extremely hard last year to revamp the way she was teaching and it showed not just in test scores (which were amazing) but in the thinking of her students that was shown daily.

She’s a phenomenal person and educator! Hope your day has been amazing!

Happy Birthday to the dazzling and glam-tastic Coach Massingill!

Coach Massingill has a hybrid role in our building- coaching PE but also being our Leader in Me Coach. She wears so many hats and wears them all so well! She has brought so many leadership opportunities to our building and our students our thriving because of her! She has great ideas and isn’t afraid to roll up her sleeves and work hard to bring those ideas to life. On top of being a leader and showing others how to be one, she builds relationships and makes sure others know how valued they truly are. She’s one of a kind and Cole Camp will never find someone else like her!

Happy Birthday Coach Massingill! 🩷
