Teeth are clean at Dye. Mobile Dentist came to visit our school for its annual 6 month check up. The Mobile Dentist sets up just like a Dentist office. The kids got to have their teeth cleaned and a fluoride treatment and for some of our students who have their adult teeth, sealants were applied. Thank you to the Dentists and the Dental Assistants who came to help out this year. See you in the fall.

In honor of Black History Month, 4th grade students at Dye Elementary were enlighten by stories, songs, instruments and activities surrounding the African American culture.  Activities included participation in the the book, Sit In:  How Four Friends Stood up by Sitting Down (against segregation at the Woolworth department store in 1960).

We made it!  Mrs. Hotchkiss’ class has been working really hard at reading this month!  Her class set a goal to read to self for 15 minutes for several days in a row.  They made it!  They celebrated reaching that goal by buddy reading with juice and cookies.

The Title I Program at Dye hosted a family mystery night on March 14.  Families were invited to solve the Case of the Cut Cake by participating in reading and math problem solving activities.  Once they collected all of the clues and solved the mystery, families enjoyed cake and juice.  Every student took home a free mystery book along with a magnifying glass and strategy card to help solve unknown words when reading.

It was a fun night for everyone involved!  Please watch for more Title I nights at Dye!
