The 18 third-graders in Christine Calabro’s class at St. John the Evangelist School in Silver Spring are January’s “Class of KidsPost.” This group loves reading KidsPost (always important for a potential Class of KidsPost) and eating cheese pizza, but not talking on cellphones! If you’d like to see your class featured, ask your teacher to go to kidspost.com to download the questionnaire, fill it out and send it, along with a class picture, to kidspost@washpost.com. We’ll feature one class a month throughout the school year.
