Students in Ms. Hicks' class made dioramas as a reflection on their recent trip to Jamestown. Great talent and creativity! Ms. Hicks was blown away, and so is TJTiger! Maybe I can go next year!
Today is one of the days I absolutely LOVE being next to the music room. Maybe Ms. Reid would like to take a break next hour? 🤣 #fccps #tjtigers
