Smorstad's Scoop- April 22nd

**WEEKLY SCOOP!**

What a great week! We had a fabulous week with spring like weather and a special field trip. I want to say a BIG thank you to the Workman family for making this Papa John’s field trip possible. The kids had a blast! Thank you to the parents who sent in food/drinks to make our meal complete. We all enjoyed quite the feast that was provided. This was definitely a great 2nd grade memory for our class. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
