Huber celebrates 100 Days of School! The children of Huber Street School all celebrated their 100th day of school today! This was a big milestone for the students, offering many different teachable moments. Students in Kindergarten learned about the number 100 by counting with the fifth graders and parading their 100 Day Shirts through the halls. Activities included creating 100-day hats, eating 100 snacks, dressing up as what they think they would look like at 100 years old. This special day provided many laughs and cute costume ideas, as well as cementing itself into these children’s memories. Although some children may not all grasp the concept of 100 yet, the day definitely provides them with a fun and joyous day of school.
