We are excited to announce we will be teaming up with Southern Arkansas University as the Panther Partner for March!
SAU hit the ground running their first day! SAU athletic teams and Dr. and Dr. Berry greeted students this morning at MKC and East Side car and bus lines. After drop off, each student was personally handed a SAU pencil with a message of encouragement from an SAU partner! Throughout the day, SAU students and staff served as guest readers and lunch buddies.
SAU has big plans for the rest of March that includes:
-A Kindness Week
-SAU Blue and Gold Days
-Performances by Encore
-Ag in the Classroom presented by Sigma Alpha Sorority
-St. Patrick's Day Fun
-Athletes coming to play at recess
-Book Clubs
-Book Buddies
-A Field Trip to SAU
-AND MUCH MORE!
