~Horace Mann Quote
A teacher who is attempting to teach without inspiring the pupil with a desire to learn is hammering on cold iron.

Our Class Took a Trip to See Walt Disney's Chimpanzee





Our Class is making Silhouettes

I think this is a great beginning of the school year "getting to know you" project.  It is so much fun and the students have a "keepsake" they can cherish for years to come. Not only that, it looks great displayed at your first Open House event!!!

Now we have PLENTY of butterflies!

We Now Have a Butterfly

We saw our first butterfly yesterday.  Today, we have LOTS of butterflies.  We also have one caterpillar that has not formed his chysalis.  We're not sure if he's lonely or just lazy, but we will be writing stories about him.

T-Rac "Jammin at East Side"

Tennessee Titans visit East Side Elementary


                                                       Tennessee Titans #89 Jared Cook

Cook shared a positive message to the students of East Side by telling them to study hard, stay away from the "wrong" crowd, eat right, exercise, and get plenty of rest.  He also shared that he has plenty of homework to do.  More than the students at East Side.  Studying and hard work does pay off.





Mrs. Humphreys was presented with an autographed football to display at East Side.  East Side is a great place to learn!!!
