Mrs. Phillips' 4th grade class recently had fun creating their own countries! The groups each chose a name, created a flag, and determined the basic government and economy. The 3rd, 5th, and 6th grade classes came and voted for the country in which they would choose to live.

Kindergarten has been an exciting few weeks! We celebrated good choices with a bubble party, learned about penguins, and explored shapes (even making some with our food!). Tom and Tabby Cat taught us about responsibility , and we experienced Lunar New Year with dumpling soup and a secret red envelope message. Learning about kindness and different cultures showed us that our differences make the world beautiful.









🌟🎉 HUGE congratulations to the Verona Elementary School Character Kids for the month of January! 🎉🌟
These superstars have shown what it truly means to be responsible—whether it’s turning in homework on time, helping a friend, or remembering to feed the class pet (because goldfish have feelings too! 🐠💙).
Responsibility isn’t just about doing what you have to do—it’s about showing that you care! And these amazing students have done just that! 👏✨
Keep up the fantastic work, Character Kids! The world needs more responsible role models like YOU! 🚀💪
