🥧✨ Our 3rd grade teachers went above the line in motivating students to give their best as they prepared for STAAR! 💪📚 Students who scored 70–100 on their reviews earned tickets to pie a teacher in the face and they worked hard to earn every one of them! 🎟️👏 Way to make learning fun, engaging, and rewarding. We are so proud of our Roadrunners and their effort! 💛🖤❤️ #RoadrunnerPride #WeAreSmith #BeepBeep #CCISDProud #AboveTheLine
