This sweet girl won the lunch give away in the cafeteria today! The ladies randomly put a sticker on a tray, and the student who got that tray won a prize! So much Friday Fun! Just another way our Cafeteria Staff loves on our students!
Great instructional strategy today in Ms. Keiser's Fifth Grade Class. The students finished reading their novel so they prepared, had their notes and participated in an open Socratic Seminar. The though provoking questions and deep discussions they had with one another was amazing. I was so proud to see each of them share their voice and encourage others. Great job Ms. Keiser and class!
Mrs. Guerro's Class earned popcorn today for turning in the MOST HABIT HOMEWORK for the month of September!! 100% of her students took the paper home, completed it with their family and returned it!! 57% of our students returned it school-wide!! Great job families. We know you realize the importance of discussing the 7-Habits at home! Look for the October homework coming soon!!
EL Teacher Kathy Martin and her students celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month today with a classroom celebration. It was full of wonderful activities. Each student has completed a flag and special things about their native county. They are all on display for us to learn more about each other.

So proud of our students for meeting their School Level "Wildly Important Goals" for the month of September. They grew in Multiplication Fluency from 41-55%. They also grew in Reading Comprehension from 41-51%.
We had our surprise celebrations today with each grade level. We dressed up as animals this year and had an Obstacle Course, Student vs. Admin. Dodgeball Game and Teacher Dance Competition. This principal is tired!! What a wonderful day! If they meet their school wide goal in October we will have an in-school glow DANCE!! Keep working hard students and reach those Reading and Math Goals. We believe in you.

Leader of the Week… Rebecca Cooley
Ms. Cooley has been chosen for Leader of the week because of the passion she shows for her students. As a first year teacher she has had to learn so much about the role of a special education teacher, her students, new curriculum, etc. She is so positive and always has a smile on her face no matter what is on her plate. She always welcomes new students into her classroom with an open heart. She collaborates well with her team and other classroom teachers. Congratulations Ms. Cooley!
Ms. Marino and Mrs. Frazier's Classes had a great time participating in STEAM activities during their library time today.
