Week of Feb. 15 – 19

This is an exciting week for the 4th grade.  We will be taking a field trip on Thursday to the San Xavier del Bac Mission.  This is the oldest standing (still functioning) early Spanish built building in Arizona.  It is a huge part of our history and we have been learning about it in Social Studies.  We are excited to go visit it in person!
