April Elementary Viking Valor

Pre-Kindergarten

Raya MacKinnon comes to school ready to learn each day with a bright smile. She works hard when it comes to learning new things and always wants to learn more. She loves to write and read books and was so proud she could finally remember the number 13! She makes good choices at school such as cleaning up the classroom or listening to her teacher. Most importantly, she is kind and caring to everybody and never lets anyone feel left out. We had a new student come to our class this year, and she was a great helper for him. Congratulations, Raya MacKinnon!
