Grandparents Day at Barnett

Barnett Elementary School’s 3rd grade Grandparents’ Day Program was November 3rd. The students were excited to eat chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes with their grandparents for lunch. They then got to show them around the school and play at recess. Parents, grandparents, and students returned to the lunchroom for the program. The students recited poems, shared stories about their grandparents, and sang songs such as “Edelweiss” and “Grandma’s Feather Bed.” A new addition to the Grandparents’ Day tradition was teaching our grandparents about what a Leader in Me school is, and what being a leader means to us. After the performance, the 3rd graders and their grandparents treated themselves to delicious cookies. We love our grandparents and are glad we could share this special day with them!
