COMMUNITY PAARTNERS IN EDUCATION

Violet and another girl from her class were asked to represent Hawthorn Hill Elementary at the Partners in Education event last night. This is a thank you event to community businesses that volunteer their time to the schools with different programs. Violet took part in the Book Buddy program this year hosted by the Mid-Continent library. Her teacher and principal were also there. Each school had a table with displays that showed pictures and explanations of their particular program. I didn't even know anything like this took place or that so many local community leaders and companies provide programs to the schools. Pretty cool.
Violet wasn't a fan of having to talk to people but her teacher did a great job of engaging Violet and getting her to talk to people.
 
She was most excited about the dessert bar.
 
At the end of the event her principal let her and the other girl take home one of the table decorations.
