She loved all the details the students included on each of the businesses chosen to represent the town of Liberty! Thanks, Mayor Romo-Woods, for stopping by to encourage our students!

We had such an amazing “Rock Your School Day” today at Liberty Primary! We started the morning by welcoming our Wolfpack to school with upbeat music, special guests in the car line, and interviews on the red carpet! Throughout the day, our incredibly creative teachers implemented out-of-the-box, engaging learning activities designed especially for our Wolfpack. Students practiced their reading and math skills through an in-house apple orchard and bakery, fractions pizzeria, place value party, glow games, and an “under the sea” classroom transformation- just to name a few! Thanks to everyone who helped make this year’s “Rock Your School Day” extra special for our Wolfpack!
