On Friday, our 6th graders wrapped up their last full week of school with a hot dog lunch grilled by Mr. Davis and cooled down with Eegee's a few parents brought. They still have more fun planned before wrapping up their time at Islands Elementary, starting with the annual Teachers v 6th Graders Kickball Game and FREE snow cones afterwards. Who do you think will win? 🐬🐬
