StandOUT Award
Mrs. Mahan passed the torch to Ms. Carpenter.
Ninja Warrior!!!
Here are the details:
Each class is working to earn 12 days of perfect attendance as a class. This means the whole class is here on time and no one checks out early. (teacher included) That would count as 1 day. Once your class has earned 12 days they be able to go to the Ninja Warrior course the last week in May. BUT don't stop trying after 12 because for every 5 days over the 12 your class will earn more time on the course. Some classes earned over an hour of time last year!
So excited to kick this off!!
