Please welcome Room 137, Del Sur Elementary School’s only second and third grade classroom, to the Del Sur blog! What better way to learn about Del Sur’s local elementary school than from the students themselves?!
“We are motivated by compliments, praise and our marble jar (when our jar fills up, we’re off to a lovely Del Sur park for a picnic),” they say. “Our digital footprints may be small, but our steps are mighty. We are excited to share our thoughts with you.”
The authors, readers, creators and digital natives in Room 137 eagerly responded to our first question, “What should people know about Del Sur Elementary?” Below are the responses and bios of four students. Enjoy!
1) Olivia B.
Hi my name is Olivia B. My favorite color is red sunset. I am eight years old and I love dogs. All of my thoughts are nice and optimistic.
The Del Sur school is in a safe community. We have ways to keep ourselves healthy. We have a running club where we run around a track, and each lap is a quarter mile. We have an art teacher and a music teacher who come on Wednesdays. We have fundraisers to raise money for our school. We have parent volunteers who help our classes. We have a wonderful principal, who does principal’s reading challenges, and that is with AR quiz points. We have learning websites, such as Lexia and Compass Learning. We are a great school.

Del Sur is a school full of community and respect. We have wonderful art teachers, music teachers and many volunteers. We also have Compass Learning, Edmodo, Lexia and many more teriffic learning websites. Our school loves reading. We have principal reading challenges and are in the midst of one right now.

I think Del Sur Elementary is a great school.
