They Said It! We recently asked our grades 1-2-3 students about their favorite part of Saint Lawrence. Here’s a few of their responses:
I really like play time because we get to slide and we get to swing. -Peyton, grade 1
Gym because we play basketball and football. -King, grade 3
We get to learn about God, and last year I was scared at first but then I met Alex and we became friends. -Emma, grade 3
