Castleton Elementary School has received the CLIF Momentum Grant! All grades K-5 received six different picture books to read to their students. Each class will do a project of their choice to accompany each book. This week Ms. Robertson's 4th grade class made posters relating to the book "Someone New," by Anne Sibley O'Brien.




Kim Hetrick is a talented landscaper! Thanks to a generous community donation, we had our front landscaping redone this summer. Looks fabulous. Thanks to Kim!

Mrs. Parrott's "Art On A Cart" has style!
