The Williams "Cool it Down!" Smoothie

It has been a great Wellness Week here at Langston Hughes! As part of the festivities, each class in the school wrote and tested an original smoothie recipe to be submitted to a panel of judges. The first place prize went to Mrs. King's 5th grade class, but the students and I thought our smoothie was pretty fantastic as well. They asked me to share the recipe with you...so here it is!

Side note - Our field trip to the zoo has been tentatively re-scheduled for Tuesday, May 11. I will let you know when this date becomes official. We will be in need of one, possibly two, new parent volunteers due to scheduling, so let me know if you are interested and we will attempt to fill those spots. Admission cost is $6 for adult sponsors.
