We are so excited to invite you all to come watch the Missoula Children's Theatre performance of Hansel and Gretel tomorrow, March 7th at 3:00 pm at the Old Junior High Auditorium located at 201 Lester Lane. These students have worked so hard all week, and they are ready to show it off. It is really impressive what all they accomplish in such a short amount of time.
Tickets are $5 for adults and $3 for children.
We also want to say a big thank you to the Oklahoma Arts Council for helping make this possible every year, along with a big thank you to the Holiday Inn of Purcell for housing our tour director for the week they are here. This wouldn't be possible without their continued support year after year.
We hope to see you there tomorrow!

To wrap up our Pets Unit, we were so excited to welcome special visitors from **Purcell Animal Shelter**! They brought the cutest puppies. Our SRO, Officer Salgado, even got in some puppy love during their visit. Our students loved learning more about how the shelter cares for animals in our community and how we can help be responsible, kind pet owners.
We also wrapped up our donation drive, and the shelter was able to pick up all of the wonderful items our families generously gave! We are SO proud of our Pre-K friends for helping make a difference for animals in need. 🐶🐱
Thank you to all of our families for supporting this project and helping us teach our little learners about compassion, responsibility, and community. Way to go, Dragons! 🐉✨

Our Pre-K classes have been learning all about pets this week and will continue next week! 🐶🐱 We’ve been talking about how to care for animals, what they need to stay healthy, and how we can show kindness and responsibility as pet owners.
To put our learning into action, our little learners are hosting a Pet Donation Drive to help our local animal shelter! 🐾❤️ We are collecting items such as pet food, treats, toys, blankets, paper towels, and other basic supplies.
This is such a special opportunity for our students to practice compassion, generosity, and community service at an early age. We are so proud of their big hearts!
If you’d like to help, donations can dropped off at the Pre-K entrance elementary school. We will accept donations through Friday, February 27.
Thank you for supporting our students as they learn to care for others — even our furry friends! 🐕🐾
