Congratulations to all those who made the Sixth Grade Honor Roll for the First Term!!!!
The students were awarded their certificates during our Honor Roll Assembly held today. To qualify for the Honor Roll, students needed four "A's", or three "A's" and one "B" in Mathematics, Language Arts/Reading, Science, and Social Studies.
The students are listed at the bottom of the blog.

Student Council: Several of our students were absent today because they were on a Student Council field trip. While we missed them in class, we are glad they were able to participate in a great learning experience. These students volunteered to be on Student Council and take on the extra responsibilities of service and leadership. We are proud of you!
