Spelling Bee
Mr. Grammens held a spelling bee for 4th and 5th graders at Ashley
Elementary on October 30th. Around 50 students competed in 7
rounds of spelling with a first
place, second place and third place given. The winner was a
4th grade student from Mr. Grammens class. A great job was done
by all. Click on the picture for more

Walk to School
We had our annual Walk to School day on October 1st. In spite of the chilly
weather, we still had 214 students, parents and teachers walk from the New
Baltimore City Park to Ashley Elementary. Some of the staff and students also
decorated their shoes. A good time was had by all! For some more pictures

Book Fair
Our fall book fair was held 9/29 through l0/3 and was put on by the Ashley
PTG. A visit was made to each classroom by George of the Jungle
before the book fair
started. The children and adults enjoyed him immensely. One
of the goals of the bookfair was to put more books into the
hands of the students and on the shelves
of the classroom libraries. This was accomplished by having
the program "One for Books". Each classroom was challenged
to raise money for "One for Books"
by having students donate $1 or more. The classroom with the
most donations, earned $50 in free books for their classroom.
All of the money collected goes
directly to purchasing books for our Family Book Club, the library
and our classroom libraries. The winning classroom was Mrs. Sheridan's
5th grade class, raising $93 and second place was Mrs.
Morisette's 3rd grade class, raising $56. GREAT JOB!!!
Nelson the Animal Guy also made an appearance for the book fair
family fun night held on October 2nd from 6 - 8 pm. Approximately,
550 people attended to view the animals and attend the book fair.
The highlight of the
night
was the
huge boa constrictor. We would like to give a special thank
you to Mrs. Pam Smith and Mrs. Abby Bridges who did a wonderful
job of running this year's book
fair.
