Great job to Mrs. Artis’ fourth grade class on their North Carolina Sweet Potato Projects! North Carolina is one of the nation’s top sweet potato producers, and this project celebrated our state’s history and creativity. Students chose a famous North Carolinian, dressed up a sweet potato to represent that person, and designed a matching shadow box. Their creativity and effort were outstanding—wonderful work, fourth graders! Thank you families for your continued support in our Dragons' learning!
