Let's show up in purple and represent being Huskies with pride!
At the end of the day, when all the students and teachers have gone home, the building begins it’s nightly transformation. WE would like to acknowledge and thank those super important folks who come in and get us ready for another day of intentional work. Elgin School District Janitorial Crew – Thank you!!
A vision is always a challenging journey, and involves obstacles and steps back during the process. AND, when the success happens, it is the purest of joys! Look at these smiles as students deliver the first produce from their efforts to the school salad bar.
Our first district-wide Wacky Wednesday Challenge is October 11th for all students and staff. Our challenge is to wear sunglasses to send off summer with style! The class 7-12 AND the class K-6 with the highest participation percentage will enjoy a warm cup of apple cider.
Halloween Carnival
Because attendance is directly related to student achievement and earning a high school diploma, each grade level is participating in an attendance challenge every month. Sophomores won the September challenge at 95.6% attendance! They earned being able to leave early for lunch to be the first ones in line for Mrs. Voyles' yummy entrees!
Coraline was recognized by her teacher, Mrs. Stratton, for showing compassion and empathy. Mrs. Stratton states, "we had a friend in class who was really struggling... Coraline walked up to him and asked if she could give him a hug-- through this compassionate moment, every one of the other students also went up to the struggling friend to give hugs. The whole class loved on this friend. It was a beautiful show of empathy and love."
Paul was recognized by his teacher, Mrs. Ledbetter, for showing compassion. Mrs. Ledbetter states "A student hadn't eaten enough for lunch and was feeling bad. Paul jumped right up during reading intervention to offer them a snack he had in his locker. What an incredible classmate and friend."
Ms. Wasley and her art students have adopted a new approach to art! It is a Student-choice/Teacher Supported approach where students choose individualized projects, they discuss and agree upon certain parameters and grading criteria and they support each other in reaching their goals. It is a dynamic approach that elicits student engagement at its finest!
Ms. Wasley and a couple of students hiked the Anthony Lake Loop in her latest hiking club adventure!
Whoo hoo Brody! Mr. Bolen has recognized Brody as a Husky Humanitarian for compassion. Mr. Bolen states, "Compassion: Brody went out of his way to model the method he uses to solve and execute problems without being asked." Thank you Brody for your willingness to help those that may need a little help!
Congratulations to Alex for being recognized as our first Husky Humanitarian of the year. Mr. McNall states, "Leadership: Alex was finished with his work and without being asked, helped other students without simply giving them the answers!" Thank you Alex for modeling what it means to genuinely help someone else understand and learn!
Congrats to our 7th graders who have embraced school pride from day one! They won our first Wacky Wednesday Challenge of the year!
