To conclude our month of Warriors Giving Thanks we have Lizzy Shehorn and Brantlee Hobart. Lizzy said that she is very thankful for school because it is fun and entertaining. She also said she gets to go see Mrs. Haan (Thanks for the shoutout, Lizzy!) and see all of her friends. Brantlee reported that he is so very thankful for his family because they are really caring. Thank you to all of our Warriors that shared with us this month. We have a lot of things to be thankful for here at Washington!!
Can you believe November is almost over?! This school year is really flying by! Today, we have two more awesome Warriors giving shoutouts for things they are thankful for: Kellin Carter and Janessa Lacourse. Kellin is thankful for his mom and dad because they buy food for him and put a roof over his head. Janessa is also thankful for her family because they are always there for her no matter what.
