Meet the newly-elected Student Government Association at Earle Elementary School. The 20 member group is a historical first

for the school. Students were nominated based on their outspokenness, leadership abilities, and high-achieving attributes. The

SGA at Earle Elementary meets weekly to discuss community service projects, fundraisers, and any concerns from peers. Future

projects include a collaboration with St. Jude. Mrs. Kaiesha McGruder serves as the SGA Sponsor.

Students donated and collected socks and gave

to one of our local Nursing Homes!

To celebrate Read Across America Week and the birthday of Dr. Seuss on March 2nd, some fun activities

are planned for the week of March 2nd through March 6th at both schools. The students will have the

opportunity to dress up for each day. We hope the students enjoy participating in this school-wide

celebration of READING.
