 Results for the Blog

   It was a very tight race between the third background and the fourth background; numbers four had six votes and number three had five votes, the other four trailed far behind. The first place background was black and had swirls of blue. Sadly the teachers did not get to vote. They could have made a difference. There were sad faces and happy faces that looked up at the board to see the new backdrop for the blog. How long will it stay?

We’re trying a few new looks for the website! Let us know what you think… Click on this document to see current and old choices…
