Good morning, Falcons! Happy St. Patrick’s Day, and happy birthday to Mr. Jacobson! I always suspected he was part Leprechaun! Hope you’re all wearing green today!
Today’s Women’s History Month fact is about an Irish woman, since we’re celebrating St. Patrick’s Day, after all! Countess Constance Markievicz is famous for being the first-ever female MP elected to the House of Commons. An Irish Republican revolutionary, suffragist, and socialist, Constance is remembered as a woman who gave up her wealth to live amongst and help the poor. Today, she is remembered by a proud statue near Trinity College in Dublin in which she is accompanied by her dog Poppet.
If you have a story about an inspiring woman you’d like to feature, please contact Mrs. Heiss!
If you bought a ticket for our Sadie Hawkins dance, we’ll see you at 3:30! Let’s dance, snack, and celebrate finding gold at the end of the rainbow!
