First round of state
We love math!
Mrs. Eddleman's 3rd grade class participated in a math challenge through Prodigy Math. The class was in competition with other 3rd grade classes throughout the state. Each challenge lasts 13 days, and the class with the most correct answers at the end of the challenge wins. 3E came out on top during the last challenge, and is in the lead for the current challenge! Prodigy also awarded certificates to the 3 students in the who answered the most questions correctly during the challenge.
3E worked hard to earn a class reward this semester. They chose to have a Popcorn/Movie/Pajama Day for their reward.
December board meeting date change.

NEW PARKING LOT INFORMATION
With the addition of the parking lot across the road from the school we are better able to bring students to school and send them home in a safe and more controlled environment. We will be adding enter and exit signs on the driveways into the parking lot. The driveway that goes onto Williford will be an entry and exit driveway. During drop off and pick up time the driveway closest to the cross walk will be chained off to make it safer for students walking across the road. During drop off and pick up, Parents should enter the parking lot on Cook Ave and follow the arrows that are marked on the ground. Drivers will then exit the parking lot onto Williford when leaving. Thank you, for working with the school as we want to keep students safe and also get you in and out in a timely manner.

Superintendent
