STUDENT OF THE WEEK
Student of the Week for the week of 2/11 is Alexia S. She was nominated by Mrs. Scheffer and here's what she had to say....
Alexia is a very happy, helpful young lady. She is always thinking of others and is just a very positive person. Her smile is contagious and her love for people and family members is obvious. She always stays a few extra minutes at the end of the school day to help me get the classroom back in order. I appreciate her!

MATH LEAGUE

The Math League Test is a timed test, in which students scores are compared against their peers in our school, as well as those in surrounding counties. If you are interested in taking the test, please let your math teacher know. If you have any questions you may talk with your math teacher, or Mrs. Brown in room 23.
