I love second graders! Hanging out in Ms. Sanchez’ 2nd grade bilingual class. A couple of kiddos are all curious about my coffee. I tease them, “don’t touch my coffee! If you drink it how will I stay awake?” Without missing a beat one of my little friends answers, “we’ll yell!”

Ms. Barrett’s bilingual class at Cooper ES is off to a great start! ¡Feliz primer día escolar amiguitos! @gisdnews @GISDTLD @GISD4EBs @AdamsTechEd @CES_Cougars
