Our Read-a-Thon is officially underway! We kicked off the day with a live interview with Marc Colagiovanni, author of The Reflection in Me, our Book of the Month! Students had the opportunity to ask questions and gain insight into his inspiring story. Just like the book reminds us to see our own strength and potential, reading helps us discover new perspectives and places. Today, as we read, we’re also ‘traveling’ across the states—exploring new adventures, cultures, and ideas along the way. Let the journey begin! 🇺🇸❤️📚

When sportsmanship meets storybook magic! 📚🏆 Our amazing PE teacher, Mrs. Turner channeled her inner Miss Trunchbull for ‘Dress Like Your Favorite Book Character’ day—but don’t worry, no chokey here, just good old-fashioned fitness and fair play! 💪👏 From push-ups to jumping jacks, she’s proving that strength, discipline, and a little fun go hand in hand. #NationalSportsmanshipDay #ReadAThon #AcequiaElementary

He may have started as a mean one, but this little Grinch couldn’t resist cracking a smile! Our hearts grew three sizes seeing him light up the day with his holiday spirit. Kindergarten cuteness at its finest! 🎅✨
