Our Lion Cub Preschool is holding their Annual Community Service Project. This year they are inviting PK-6th grade students to participate in a canned food drive. Between November 3rd - 21st, bring a can of food to either Preschool Classroom and help support our littlest Lions in this project!!


We had 1256.25 total miles completed by all of our runners across the grades. A total of 26 Lions completed a full marathon!
A special shout out to our sponsors: First State Bank - Torrington, Lackey Trucking, The Roasted Mug, and Westco! We appreciate all you do for our school! Students earned a charm for their running necklaces for every 5 miles they completed. Marathon runners received a t-shirt too!
Thank you to Miss Jessi and Mrs. Lackey for helping to organize this event each year. We love seeing how many students take on the challenge.
Congratulations to all of our runners!

Thank you for your incredible support of our Book Fair. Because of your generosity, enthusiasm, and support, our students are discovering the joy and power of reading at home and at school.
Whether you shopped the Book Fair, donated to Share the Fair, funded students' eWallets, or purchased books for teachers, you have made a lasting impact on our young readers! With your support, we were able to build classroom libraries, expand our elementary library collection, and help students find books they're excited to read.
If you weren't able to shop during our Book Fair week and would like to purchase books for young reader's in your life, you can still shop online until November 2 at http://www.scholastic.com/bf/morrillelementaryschool
Thank you again for your support!
