This afternoon, the students at Cooper Elementary celebrated Thanksgiving in a special way. Thanks to a great idea from Kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Laning, the students had their first Pie Day at Cooper. During the event, Mrs. Keorkunian (principal) read "One is a Feast For Mouse, A Thanksgiving Tale" over the intercom while all of the students in Preschool-5th Grade were seated at a makeshift table lining their main hallway. After the story was read, students and staff enjoyed pumpkin pie together. It was so much fun that Cooper plans to make this an annual tradition.
As a reminder, there is no school from Wednesday, November 23-Friday, November 25 for Thanksgiving Break. We wish our students, staff, families and community a wonderful Thanksgiving!
