Market Day 2012
MARKET DAY was a HUGE SUCCESS! The 3rd graders spent several weeks learning about the economy, supply & demand, as well as goods & services. On Friday, May 11th the 3rd graders put what they learned into action as they provided all sorts of good and services for the rest of the student body to purchase. When market day ended the 3rd graders earned a record amount of money. This money will be used in many different ways next year to help our school. If you would like to see pictures Click here.
