Williamston Primary School

Noodle race day with Coach Lilley! Our 2nd graders sprinted to stack pool noodles — but they had to keep a pattern while racing! Patterns + speed = big smiles and proud moments. ✨

Curious learners in Mrs. Stewart’s class today practiced finding evidence in the text—working in collaborative groups and discussing with a partner until they agreed on the correct answer. 🧠✨ It was wonderful to see students using conversation to build understanding and confidence.

Want to shout out a special moment? Rent the WPS Spirit Rock like Cordelia did for her birthday! 🎉 Proceeds support our PTA — email Mrs. Stewart to book:
