Meet Me At the Library

On February 4, Annistown Elementary School has been invited
to the Centeville Library for a
night of learning. It will be a
night of learning the power of
STEAM! This is an acronym for
Science, Technology, Engineering,
Art, and Mathematics. The pro-

gram will focus on these five

areas with Hands-On activities.
One such activity is building a
bridge out of marshmallows and
toothpicks. This is a great way
for our children to learn something in a new way. We hope to
see you there!!

On February 19 the Fourth

Grade students will be preforming in a Black History
Program during the PTA
meeting. We look forward to
seeing you there and we know
our students will be happy to
show you all their hard work.!
