🏈💙 Big dreams do come true! Fulbright Elementary 4th graders got a surprise visit from Jackson Woodard, who was just drafted by the Seattle Seahawks! Jackson was once a 4th grade student of Fulbright teacher Mrs. Jennifer Dilday, and during that time, he wrote a paper about wanting to play in the NFL. Yesterday, he returned to share his story and inspire the next generation—proof that with hard work and determination, dreams can become reality! 🌟
GO SEAHAWKS! We had a surprise visit today from a former student of Mrs. Dilday! Jackson Woodard ,who was just drafted to the Seattle Seahawks, came to visit our 4th graders. When he was in 4th grade he wrote a paper for Mrs. Dilday stating he wanted to play in the NFL and look at him now!
Pre-k is learning about insects. Jamie Schildknecht (one of our very own Falcons) was our special guest speaker. She shared information from her award-winning speech about pollination. She is as eloquent as she is knowledgeable. Super impressive.
We are beyond thankful for our Administrative Professionals! We would crumble without them!
