2nd Grade Master Builders In-Person
Join Miss Melissa every month for new building challenges! In April, we will be completing different foam block challenges. These will include a floating city challenge built on a bucket of water and a block stacking relay. 2nd Grade. Registration is required.
ATTENTION: Registration closes at 11:59 p.m. the Thursday before each after-school program is scheduled. This allows the Library time to make arrangements with the school's main office. Teachers will be notified which students are registered for after-school programs. On the program date, students will gather in the WSS cafeteria where a Library staff member will pick them up at 3:10 p.m. All after school programs last 1 hour unless listed otherwise. Students may bring a snack to eat before the program begins.
