Fourth Grade students at Rees Elementary wrote letters to Veterans thanking them for their service.  After a Veterans Assembly at the school, students went up and gave the letters to the Veterans who had come.  They were grateful for this token of respect.

In October Mrs. Jex's fourth grade class practiced and performed "The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything".  Lisa Bean, the district drama specialist helped us get started.  We performed for our parents and many classes at Rees Elementary.
