The New Central annual Third Grade Yard Sale is such a great teaching tool for students as they learn how to organize their own shops, handle money, work with customers, and see how hard work can make a difference. Thanks to their efforts earlier this year, third grade was able to make donations this week to our local animal shelter and food pantry. Also making a special appearance this week was substitute teacher “Ma’am Ham” filling in for Miss Witherell’s class. 😂 She took her role seriously and kept the class on track; a hard task this time of year. So proud of the leadership and big hearts our students continue to show. All Ducks fly together! 🦆
