Student of the Week
8th- Maci Dale
I have enjoyed having Maci in class this year. She works hard in class and in sports. She always has a positive attitude. She is quiet in class but is self-motivated. In the last quarter, she has become more comfortable asking questions in class when she doesn’t understand or needs help.
7th-
6th- Jordan King
Jordan is doing a great job this year. He is always kind to everyone. Always has a smile on his face. He is very respectful to his teachers and fellow classmates. He has made great progress this year ! Keep up the great work Jordan!
5th- Dean Walsh
Dean has worked hard to make sure assignments are turned in on time. He is taking on more responsibilities in the classroom with our class jobs, and he is doing a fantastic job. Dean is always positive and has been a joy to have in class this year. Keep up the great work, Dean !

Our schools are seeing an increase in the number of students contracting strep throat. Group A streptococcus bacteria are very contagious. The bacteria that causes strep throat travels in respiratory droplets that are created when an infected person coughs or sneezes. To help us reduce strep throat infections please take a moment to review the Parent Fact Sheet.
