Clark Elementary Bulletin for Tuesday, March 03, 2026
GREETINGS AND SALUTATIONS! Good morning, Clark Elementary! Today is Tuesday, March 3rd, it's the 121st day of school, and it's National If Pets Had Thumbs Day!
THIS DAY IN HISTORY! On this day in 1887, Anne Sullivan began teaching six-year-old Helen Keller, who lost her sight and hearing after a severe illness at the age of 19 months. Under Sullivan's tutelage, including her pioneering "touch teaching" techniques, Keller flourished, eventually graduating from college and becoming an international lecturer and activist. Sullivan, later dubbed "the miracle worker," remained Keller's interpreter and constant companion until the older woman died in 1936.
WHAT'S COOKING? For lunch today, we will devour delicious chicken nachos, a scrumptious quesadilla pizza, or the classic PB&J. We have fresh fruits and veggies and cartons filled to the brim with refreshing, ice-cold milk.
WEATHER The weather today will be a bit cloudy and moist. The high will be in the upper forties, the skies will be cloudy throughout the day, and there's a chance for some rain.
VOCABULARY BUILDER-UPPER/WORD OF THE DAY The vocabulary word of the day is bamboozle (bam·boo·zle), a verb that means to fool or cheat someone. To bamboozle is to hoodwink, lead by the nose, or pull the wool over someone's eyes — you're tricking or fooling them. A bamboozler lies and pretends to be a good guy, all the while plotting to empty your bank account or steal away your promotion. Con men are professional bamboozlers. Some people think advertisers are bamboozlers, since they're constantly trying to trick you into buying something you probably don't need.
QUOTE OF THE DAY
Marcus Aurelius once said, "If it isn't right, don't do it. If it isn't true, don't say it. Controlling your impulses is on you." It doesn't matter what anyone else does; you are in control of yourself. If it isn't right, don't do it, it doesn't matter if the person was mean to you first or if the adult isn't looking. Control yourself and do the right thing. Choose to make this a truly remarkable Tuesday.
Please stand for the Pledge of Allegiance.
