It's 9.25 & Heritage Hill staff tumbled out of bed and headed to the kitchen, poured ourselves a cup of ambition, stretched, yawned and came to life for our staff underground Dolly Day! A few students knew exactly what we had planned and joined in the fun as well! 💖🦋🎵 At 9:25AM we listened to 9 to 5 by Dolly as a building followed by classroom celebrations of Dolly's contribution to literacy & the Imagination Library by listening to her reading one of her Imagination Library books. All students have learned one Dolly Parton song in music class- I Believe In You or Coat of Many Colors & sang those today to celebrate the extraordinary humanitarian contributions Dolly made to the world! 📚 It was a great day to be a (Dolly) Viking! You'll never do a whole lot unless you're willing to try. 🦋 If you see someone without a smile, give them yours. 💖 #DollyDay #EveryStudentEveryOpportunity #AAGV
