Jackie Robinson Day, part 2.








Today is Jackie Robinson Day!!! Our wonderful PTO at Townsend took an idea and ran with it! Mrs. Annie Johnson made shirts for the 1st & 2nd grade students in Ms Simpson's class. In reference to our studies during Black History Month, we celebrated our favorite #42!!!
We "sported" our shirts, did an art project, and had a day of learning through celebration!
Thank you so much, Townsend PTO & Ms. Annie!
