A Work of Art!

STOCKTON’S THIRD-GRADE CLASSES of Ms. Tricia Hemphill and Mrs. Martha Fleck combined their efforts to construct an amazing paper chain American flag, with the purpose of displaying it during the Veterans Day program which was going to be held at the school. Because the event got cancelled, it was, instead, placed in the front window of the Stockton Sentinel, so it could be enjoyed by passers-by. Many of the students, along with their teachers, recently gathered for a group photo in front of the unique flag. Readers might also notice that, not only did the students spend quite a number of hours making the flag, but they also shared their talents this week, having drawn pictures of what they are thankful for in celebration of the Thanksgiving holiday. The students were assigned a letter of the alphabet, and, in turn, drew what they are thankful for that begins with that particular letter. As you peruse this issue of the Sentinel, please pay special attention to the sponsors of the Thanksgiving greeting ads who made this project possible. Happy Thanksgiving!
