Teddy bears in Bluffton reacted to last month's nationwide craze of parking themselves in windows so that young children could look for them while riding in vehicles with their parents.
According to the Icon's count, 93 teddy bears participated in this project. Additional stuffed animals joined the fun including owls, llamas and even a beaver.
Teacher Appreciation Week is May 4-8. In cooperation with the Bluffton PTO, the Icon is posting drawings of elementary teachers created by elementary students. Haddy Glick, first graders, created this drawing of her teacher, Mrs. Combs.
The Icon invites all elementary students to submit a drawing of a teacher. Send to: [email protected].
Here's today's installment of the Bluffton High School Class of 2020 Senior Spotlight. Each weekday until the end of May the Icon will feature photos and future plans for four BHS seniors. Students will be featured in a four-set random order. Information about the students is provided by the Bluffton schools.
