The month of November is a wonderful time to reflect on all we have to be grateful for. Looking at life’s many blessings helps gain perspective, and in that vein we at CMM asked the Satchel Ford Elementary first grade teachers to pose the following question to their classes: What are you most thankful for? Children answered from the classes of Mrs. Lane Chapell, Mrs. Kelsey Reynolds, Mrs. Susan Jones, Mrs. Valerie Manly, Ms. Cotter Jenkins, and Mrs. Heather Avallone.
