Our Book Blast is off to a great start! Miss Bella Jo was the first of four winners of the treasure chests. Way to go, girl! Congratulations 🎉 Miss Bella also earned a Bird Brag! She grabbed a broom yesterday and without being asked, helped sweep up rocks that were all over the gym floor. This my friends is why Bella Jo is so AWESOME! Don’t Miss Out!
