Clemson Elementary presented our Veteran's Program today. Fourth and fifth grade students in the chorus sang beautiful patriotic songs. Fifth grade students shared about each of the armed forces. The book, "America's White Table," was shared during the program.
Fourth and fifth grade students in Mrs. Young's Physical Education Class have been participating in the Wheels to Wellness Clinic. The purpose of the program is to teach students the importance of bicycle safety. The students have been learning the proper way to wear a helmet, adjusting a bike to fit them, using the correct communication while riding solo or in a group, as well as some fun yet challenging activities to test their skills on a bike.
