Ellie Machutta and Achillies Beckmeyer both earned positive referrals this week! Ellie's love of reading led her to donate some books to Mrs. Gundy's Little Library and Achillies got a shout out from Mrs. Matlack for his amazing work in her 21st Century class! Great job to these two for being a positive influence in our building! #440Proud #HMSDragons
