To celebrate 100 Days, the older students each brought a banana to school for a special project.
For this project, they did not need scotch tape, or fishing line, or even a screwdriver. They all shuffled out to the front porch, where they were shocked - shocked! - to find the table loaded with the raw materials needed for making banana splits. They each had the privilege of manufacturing their own, and then they dug in eagerly, so it didn't take long until everyone was scarfing their healthful, imaginative, fruit-and-dairy creations. They loved it. Especially because they [Yolanda] could even put chocolate on twice! (Feast your eyes here.)
After they finished putting away their banana projects, everyone headed back inside to wrap up goal setting and cleaning jobs.
Every one of them took their banana projects home with them.

Today is the 100th Day of School, and that requires celebration! Miss Susie's and Miss Rosita's classes enjoyed a day of fun and games (with maybe a little work thrown in), and candy, and Fruit Loop crafts, and balloon popping, and pinata demolishing, and even a trip to The Fruitville Hill for a picnic lunch.
Miss Susie's class had the great fun of breaking the pinata, and Miss Rosita's students were thrilled to have the job of popping the one hundred balloons floating around her classroom. All the students took these responsibilities seriously: it was a big deal! With things like finding one hundred "hidden" Hershey's chocolate Kisses around the room, and drawing prizes out of paper bags, it was an exciting - and exhausting - day for these youngsters.
Great memories!

It was a smashing success! The aging pumphouse was quickly torn down today by eager students wielding crowbars and sledge hammers. The strong young men of the Big Room vigorously attacked the little building and reduced it to a shivering pile of sad rubble, then tore it limb from limb and deposited it unceremoniously in the dumpster. It took less than an hour.
The pumphouse, a fixture on the school property for many years, was then replaced with a rock. Yes. A rock. A hollow rock. You should see it.
Thanks, young men, for making speedy work of hauling away the old structure. We appreciate your excellent work. The school grounds looks better because of it.
Please don't climb on the rock.
