First Grade Book Buddies First grade Book Buddies read and discuss Flat Stanley by Jeff Brown.    Mr. Cook rocking the beat at Jefferson's Jump Rope for Heart.     Cello Fury performed for the students.  "Cello Fury is a rarity in the music world: three classically trained cellists and a rock drummer performing high-energy original music in venues ranging from concert halls to rock clubs. Appealing to a diverse audience across age groups and musical interests sets Cello Fury apart from your average rock band. Continually developing their own unique style of cello rock music, cellists Simon Cummings, Ben Muño and Nicole Myers along with drummer David Throckmorton unleash vitality and rhythmic drive in their music and dare to venture past classical expectations."
