Mrs. Grim’s Magnetic Reading Group is hard at work building strong foundational reading skills! Using their boards and letter tiles, students are practicing encoding and decoding words while strengthening their phonics skills and growing into more confident readers. Every letter, sound, and word brings them one step closer to reading success!

We would like to send a special shout out to these four leaders for helping at each girls basketball game we had at WR this season-Kason Shepherd, Carter Lyons, Brantley Martin, and Brantley Horne. We also would like to thank the adults and officials at each game that were patient with them and helped them learn how to do this job properly! We are so proud of them and appreciate their willingness to help! GO TOMCATS! 🐾💚🏀
