Peace Wall Ceremony for PIE students

Mr. Kirschke and Mr. McLaughlin's 4/5 PIE students invited their K/1 reading and writing buddies to the Peace Wall for an end of the school year ceremony. The older students presented their younger buddies with "Goodbye and Good Luck" cards, since they will be moving up to the middle school in the fall.

Mrs. Nachtigal's K/1 students raised butterflies throughout the springtime months. The kids had so much fun observing their caterpillars transform into butterflies. They decided that the perfect place to release their butterflies would be at the Peace Wall. The students hoped that the insects would fly to the Peace Garden nearby and live there.

It was a beautiful send off! Good luck to all the PIE 4/5 students who will be moving on to the middle school in the fall, it was wonderful watching you learn and grow!
