🎈💦 Target Practice with Teacher! 💦🎈
Our amazing 2nd graders at Lewiston worked hard, earned their rewards, and got the ultimate prize: throwing water balloons at their teacher. There is nothing quite like the sound of pure childhood laughter (and the splash of a well-aimed water balloon).
We have some soaked teachers, but very happy hearts. So proud of these kiddos and the joy they bring to school every day! ❤️
