Reading Month is off to an amazing star at Pullman Elementary! Our students have already finished so many books. Each time a student completes a book, they add a sticker to the wall, and it’s quickly filling up! We’re so proud of their excitement for reading. Keep it up!
Thank you to Braeden Vorndran for reading to our students!

The Book Fair at Bloomingdale Elementary is just days away! The Fair encourages students to read AND it raises much-needed funds for our school. The easiest way for kids to pay is with an eWallet. Create one for your child so they can shop cash free and independently! Visit our school homepage to get started: https://scholastic.com/bf/bloomingdaleelementaryschool1
