Our 5th graders took the lead in hiding eggs for the 2nd grade—and they did not hold back! From clever hiding spots to a few eggs buried like treasure, they made sure it was a true challenge.
Shoutout to our creative 5th grade egg-hiders and determined 2nd grade egg-hunters—it was so fun watching the big kids lead the way and the littles rise to the challenge!
Easter fun is in the air today at Howe Elementary! Students enjoyed egg hunts and a sweet ice cream treat to celebrate the season.
Smiles, sunshine, and sprinkles—what more could you ask for?
