"Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom" could dampen the spirits of our Crusaders Friday afternoon! Students were "blown away" by all the fun activities Coach K. planned for this year's field day. Students participated in events such as: "Drip, Drip, Drench &
Fill the Bucket"; "Softball Throw, Tug of War, & Long Jump"; "Cornhole, Ladder Toss, & Ring Toss"; and
"Spoon & Egg Race, 3 Legged Race, & Potato Sack Race." Way to go everyone!!!

Thank you Ms.Jones for everything you do here at Emerson.





On this episode of Eyewitness Emerson...
We find some of our fourth grade paraeducators busy helping students learn to proofread their stories. Students in both classes were assigned the task of writing the rough draft of a story, having a partner proofread their story, and then students completed their final copy.
Also, our paras have the opportunity to spend recess with our students. Whether they are reffing a soccer game, or watching students on the playground both our paras and students enjoy they unstructured time they get to spend with each other!
