Our Kindergarten Terrapins sure know how to start the day in a happy way! 🎉
Mrs. Dechert’s Kindergarten class begins each morning with a fun and energetic greeting time. Today’s greeting had each student taking a turn jumping on the trampoline while the class chanted:
“One, two, three, four — hit the floor, (student’s name)!
We’re so glad you’re here today…
Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!” 🎉
This is just one of the many fun and creative morning greetings our kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Dechert, shares with her students, along with instructional assistants Mrs. Compton and Mrs. Malchow. These joyful routines get our Kindergarten Terrapins moving, laughing, and excited for the day ahead.
There’s nothing better than starting the morning with smiles, energy, and a warm Vienna Elementary welcome! 💛🐢📚

Vienna Elementary Terrapins love learning new words! 📚🐢
Mr. Stephen P. Heyneman from the Rotary Club of Cambridge visited Ms. Todd, our 3rd grade teacher, and our Vienna Elementary School 3rd grade class to present each student with a wonderful gift — their very own dictionary! He also took time to show them how to use it so they can discover new words, meanings, and build their vocabulary.
Thank you to Mr. Heyneman and the Rotary Club of Cambridge for this generous gift that our 3rd grade Terrapins can use throughout their program of study as they grow into college and career-ready students. 💚 #withJOY
