The White Elementary Chorus students put on a "mARRRRvelous" show this week! For the past 2 years, our stage has been empty. These 4th and 5th graders were excited to take the stage once more and fill our school and community with holiday cheer! Here are some photos of their performance on December 9th - "The Holly Jolly Pirates of Pinataville" a musical by Teresa Jennings and Karl Hitzemann. They were directed by chorus staff members, Mrs. Catron, Mrs. Chatman, Ms. Cole, and Ms. Witt.
“Farm to School Table” with a little help from our Bartow County School Nutrition coordinator, Ms. Emily Miller. Thanks to our 2nd grade garden club members, 3rd grade ESOL students, and Mrs. Clements, they successfully grew lacinto kale. Ms. Miller helped our student farmers harvest, prep, and bake kale chips. The students now have a new recipe to share with their families and have decided they want to continue those healthy habits in their own home! #goldenradish #ugaextension #FuelingGA #mastergardener
