Hair Cutting Update

In order to make the contest equitable Mrs. G helped us come up with an idea . We asked friends in our building to donate accessories, hair bands, etc to go into a big container. The student who guesses the most accessories will be the one gets to cut my hair! Stay tuned for updates of our donations.

All of the hair accessories will be donated to Locks of Love!
