In an effort to get the junior high and high school reading more for the Reading Challenge, we have an online reading log! Mrs Ivers made each student a book mark with a QR code. All your child has to do is read for 30 minutes, log on with the QR code, record book and time. If they tell you what they read, they get another chain link for our school wide competition. Please encourage your child to read. It can be a book, magazine, online article, graphic novel, picture book to a young one, if they are reading, it counts! #readingisimportant #quackingforbookschallenge #parentsmakeadifferenceintheirchildseducation
Homework Club CLOSED today(4/2) and tomorrow (4/3)

Day 5 (3/20) Americas Day: Chicken and Steak Street Tacos, Pico de Gallo, and Tortillas, with baked Cinnamon-Sugar "Doughnut Holes" for dessert. No pics of dessert, unfortunately,--we were in a hurry to make enough to share at the Electives Showcase.
The kids had a lot of fun learning how to make lots of new foods...and we only had two small injuries (one cut, one burn) all week. Success!
