Title 1 Goal Getters

Students in Mrs. Brauner's class and Mrs. Dicus' class met their Reading Counts goals three weeks sooner than their goal date!  Woo Hoo!   Not to worry, though, there is still plenty of time to make your goal!

Each of these students have met their personal goals in terms of points and percentage correct.  Congratulations to each of you!

Second (Grade) City

The students in Mrs. Billings' class created a city from various materials when they studied communities in social studies.  The students informed me that they collected milk cartons from their lunches and collected other "goodies" to help them build the city.

The students were able to explain each part of the community and what each role was. I was grateful to see that there was a school in their town!
