Goal Crushers!
Mrs. Shield's third grade class met their goal of 82% of students will be Proficient or Advanced on their Subtraction Assessments. After following their PDSA goal cycle (Plan, Do, Study, Act), the class earned a comfy day and movie for reaching their goal!! Keep it up!

Leaders of the Month
LEADER IN ME
Clever is a Leader in Me school. Leader in Me is a focus based off of the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.
For the month of December we are focusing on Habit 4: Think Win-Win.
Students will receive LEADERSLIPS which highlight when a student is showcasing leadership skills. Students place their slips into a prize basket and at the end of the month slips are drawn for prizes. Below are some student's whose slips were drawn last month!
Reading Celebration
We celebrated our OUTSTANDING progress in reading and writing Title 1 party with 1st-4th grades.
We celebrated this semester with some "reindeer" games with snowballs (cotton balls), red cups (hooves), and shovels (spatulas). We read aloud a book, and every child received a book to take home. It was a fun day!
