Leap Frog Races and Dice Games Bring Lunchtime Energy

A student committee works with the CMMS assistant principal to create fun activities during lunch! On November 8, students and staff could play the Dice Game. The object of the game? To roll 10 dice to get all the same number. The first time they got to roll all the dice together. After that it was one at a time. The goal was to have all the dice the same number. First on the stage to get that done was the winner in every round!

On December 5, it was good fun with Leap Frog, the fun game where you leap over your partner. Two pairs of students raced and kept time. The fastest time in each lunch won an extra prize. Fun was had by all!

Meet Principal Erin McKee!

Hi, Falcon families! My favorite part of being a principal is greeting our students each morning. A few fun facts about me: If I could only eat one cuisine for the rest of my life, it would be Japanese food. My bucket list includes attending a Beyoncé concert. I’m really good at parallel parking.
