Dillon’s Positive Peers have been so helpful during all these cold days we have been inside. Our third grade students will go into the kindergarten classrooms and help monitor them during recess. What a great help for our Noon Hour Supervisors.

Many teachers at Dillon Elementary have students do brain gym throughout the day. This helps the students get exercise and wake up during different parts of the day. We like to see our students awake and ready to learn!

Students and teachers at Dillon Elementary were able to wear a hat to school on Friday, February 28, 2014 if they donated a dollar to the Food Bank. This is one of the many special days we have had over this year to contribute to the Food Bank.

Dillon students and parents got to experience our cookies and cocoa night during our conferences!  Students got to take home a gingerbread book, make a gingerbread boy or girl with words of praise written on it by their parents, decorate a foam frame for a story they wrote about getting away from the fox if they were a gingerbread person, and they got to decorate a gingerbread cookie and eat it!  Thank you Title I for all of the great activities our students and parents got to enjoy!

Dillon Kindergarten students celebrated their 100^th day of school!  They were making fun hats, brought it 100 of a certain item for the classroom 100’s museum. One class even had pictures aging kids to 100 and they wrote about what they would be doing when they were 100. What a great day all of the students had.

The Flint Public Library was so gracious to sponsor a wonderful assembly in honor of MLK!  This was  a wonderful fun experience and the children loved the dancing and different musical instruments.

For-Mar came to visit Dillon Elementary. They taught the third grade students about nutrition, and discussed the healthy things to eat versus the unhealthy things to eat.
