Night of the Eagles

March 9th was a very special day here at Forest North Elementary. We celebrated Night of the Eagles, where we soar away with reading and community.

To celebrate the event, we all wore our pajamas to school. There were lots of cute slippers and PJs!

After our PTA meeting, students rotated between four rooms of reading. Ms. Jacobs delighted us with Spoon, Mrs. Decker told us of The Hair of Zoe Fleefenbacher Goes to School, Mrs. Hermansen directed us to The Way Back Home, and Ms. Potral read Police Cloud. Good thing they have lots of practice and are great readers, because they were a success. Their audiences loved it!












After the books were all read, we all met in the cafeteria and had some milk and cookies! Elizabeth Kahura was on the scene to deliver tales of Africa. We sang songs in Swahili and danced to beautiful music. Elizabeth also told us a beautiful tale of a soaring Eagle and why being an Eagle is being a success! It was a fun night for all. Thanks to all who made it out!
