If you ask first graders Wyatt and Alydia what they love most about Clinton Elementary, they won’t hesitate: “The people.”
For Wyatt, the best part of school is seeing his friends—and Principal Gleed. “She’s so nice and really funny!” he said. “I like her a lot.”
He was also quick to share that his favorite subject is math.
“It’s just really fun to do!” he said with wide eyes and a smile.
When it comes to favorite places in the building?
“The playground,” he says. “I’m really excited about the new park and the new lunchroom!”
Alydia echoes that excitement.
“I love seeing all the teachers and my friends every day.”
Her favorite subjects are art and math.
“because they’re challenging,” she says proudly. “That’s why I like them!”
Alydia especially enjoys PE and art time, where she can express herself and stay active. She also gives a special shout-out to her favorite teachers, Miss Reese and Miss Mauer, who’ve made a big difference in her year.
For both Wyatt and Alydia, Clinton Elementary isn’t just a place to learn—it’s a place where fun, friendship and learning come together every day.
