One of my darling 2nd graders today: “I’ve been to 5 different schools, but this school isn’t like any of the other schools. We do different stuff here and I get it.” #WeareHCS #DroptheMic @HCS_TitleI @HamptonCSchools @MBlountJr @CJSmithSharks
I found my Awesome Twin in kindergarten! @KraftES1

Students in Mrs. Slade’s class had a special guest reader this week! One of her former students came back from 3rd grade to read a book and model her fluent reading! #relationships #WeAreHCS @CJSmithSharks @SladeLuvs2tch @HCS_TitleI
