Bill and Daniel say "Hi"

Hello from Michigan. Today we got the pleasure in meeting our Korean buddies. We were shocked at how well they speak English. We traded pins from as far as Singapore and Germany. We walked and walked and walked and walked (by this time I think you understand our feelings). We went to the University Dairy and a beautiful garden. The weather ranged from the mid eighties to the nineties. We appreciate all of the support you have given us. We look forward to seeing your comments.

Almost time

Well, here it is Sunday night. We have one day of school and then it is off to Michigan for the competition. We got word last week that our props had arrived and we just have to pack up and go. This is going to be such an exciting week. Wish you could all go with us.

Both the 2nd and 4th Grade teams advance to World Finals!

We are so proud of our two teams that will advance to the World Competition in Lansing, Michigan May 23-26. This will be an incredible experience for all the children, coaches and families. What a tribute this is to our great school, Madison Simis Elementary.

A special thanks to our principal, Dr. Joyce Flowers for all of her hard work and unwavering support.
