Panther Pride!

This past Friday afternoon four boys from our classroom joined the rest of our 1st grade gentleman's club at the last Ashdown Panther home baseball game!

The 1st grade ladies and gentleman's clubs are not something that every school has! They meet every other Friday and learn about different life skills such as respect, good manners, sportsmanship, hard work ethics, and much more! Many times they even have guest speakers. Some of the special people that have visited with with them are the cheerleading squad, the football, basketball, and baseball teams along with their coaches! These are all influential people that our first grade students look up to daily and admire!

We are very thankful for Mrs. Cross who makes all of this possible! She does a great job of teaching our kids the importance of school pride and we appreciate the opportunities that she provides for our children!
