Daily Bulletin
Clark Elementary Bulletin for Wednesday, March 04, 2026
GREETINGS AND SALUTATIONS! Good morning, Clark Elementary! Today is Wednesday, March 4th, it's the 122nd day of school, and it's Hug a GI Day!
THIS DAY IN HISTORY! On this day in 1861, Abraham Lincoln became the 16th president of the United States. In his inauguration speech, Lincoln extended an olive branch to the South, but also made it clear that he intended to enforce federal laws in the states that seceded.
WHAT'S COOKING? For lunch today, we will munch on a mouth-watering Sloppy Joe, a delightful ham and cheese sammy, or the classic PB&J. We have fresh fruits and veggies to nibble on and cartons filled to the brim with refreshing, ice-cold milk to wash everything down.
WEATHER The weather today should be pretty OK. The high will be in the upper forties, and the skies will be cloudy.
VOCABULARY BUILDER-UPPER/WORD OF THE DAY The word of the day is outwit (out·wit), a verb that means to beat through cleverness and wit. Use the verb outwit to describe using your brain to beat an opponent, like outwitting someone by figuring out the answer to a difficult riddle. Wit comes from the Old English word witan, which means "to know." So someone who outwits another person knows more — or at least knows more than the person thought.
QUOTE OF THE DAY
Seneca once said, "Wherever there is a human being, there is an opportunity for kindness." Every single person you meet, you have the opportunity to be kind or mean. When you have the choice, and you always have the choice, why would you choose to be anything other than kind? Choose to make this a fantastic Wednesday!
Please stand for the Pledge of Allegiance.
