See this young man here? Layton found quite a bit of money in a library book today, and he turned the money in to Mr. Doane. He was rewarded for his honesty with a book and pen from the Book Fair! “Honesty” happens to be our character word for March. So proud of Layton for being a GR8 citizen and role model!
Blaise used his tiger bucks on a coupon for lunch with Mrs. Hammers. They had a lovely lunch full of interesting conversation.
