Ms. Mosconas' first grade class has been participating in a lemonade stand instructional unit including math and reading skills. As the culmination to this unit, they will have lemonade stands in front of Sugar River Bank and also on the town common on Thursday, May 30 from 12:15 to 1:45 p.m. Students voted that all of the money raised will be donated to the Sullivan County Humane Society. So please plan to come by and purchase a cold cup of lemonade! This unit was made possible by a grant from the Newport Rotary Club.
