Dates to remember:

Dec. 5th: Christmas Concert at the high school
Dec. 7th: Middle school Code Day and Spirit Day
Dec. 21st: 2 hour early dismissal and Spirit Day
Dec. 24-Jan. 2 Christmas Break No School!!


The 8th grade finished their novel on Monday. They are in the middle of their test for it and will begin their 3D projects on Thursday. Again, I encourage students to use things from home rather than buy them. Their next unit will be poetry so they will take a couple of weeks off from novel reading.

They also had visitors on Monday. The 1st grade stopped by to read their 8 page book summaries.




The 7th grade just started 12 Angry Men to wrap up their novel unit. Once they are done reading the play, they will have a persuasive presentation using Google Slides or some sort of presentation format. 

The 6th grade is just about to wrap up their unit of theme before heading into poetry. We are also really hitting on their writing lately. Run-on sentences seem to be a struggle, so we are really focusing on how to correct those.  


Thank you to all of those who let their children donate to the door decorating contest. We raised over $200 that will be donated to Heifer International. The Civics Club will decide what they would like to donate. 

The winners are: 
1st Place: Mikaela Downing (8) and Taylor Smith (6)
2nd Place: Hope Woods and CarleyZoe Ralston (7) 
Congratulations to the winners! The doors were great, and our school looks so festive!
