Character Counts!


Wednesday was the last class in our Character Counts program. We were sad to see Mrs. Wiggam leave after our lesson. The students loved having her visit each month. She always motivates the students to do great things! She is an excellent teacher. We appreciate all of the volunteers and their commitment to the program. Our last pillars of character were caring and citizenship. We had a visit from Queen Alia. She was thrilled by the 'Haley' welcome we gave her. She was able to meet all of our caring citizens and was pleased by their behavior. We finished the surfer themed character books and Mrs. Wiggam presented each student with a certificate. Thank you, Mrs. Wiggam!


The science test over weather will be next Friday, March 26. The test will be multiple choice and will feature some review of past quizzes as well as analyzing and predicting weather maps. The students read all about weather systems today. The packet they received contains information we will use for the next week. The students will have to apply their weather skills for the assessment.
