Racing to Read
To promote reading throughout Yulee Elementary School, a challenge was shared with all classes called, “The Great AR Horse Race.” Students read alongside their classmates for their class to win by accruing the most AR points. The top class in each grade level was awarded with a pizza party, and the top grade received dessert as well.
Congratulations to the following winning classes:
3rd grade: Ms. Scott’s class: 517.3 points
4th grade: Ms. Watkins’ class: 530.3 points
5th grade: Mrs. Jones’ class: 481.5 points
To top it off, all classes were issued an additional challenge: Any class that earned 500 points or more was able to silly string Mrs. Loudermilk in celebration of their accomplishment. Ms. Scott's and Ms. Watkins’ class both earned this special celebration.
We are overjoyed with all of the hard work our students displayed. Creating a culture of students who love to read is an important goal for Y.E.S.!

Argiscience in Action
Twice a month at Hilliard Middle-Senior High, Mrs. McCullough and the Agriscience and Agritechnology students are able to participate in hands-on lessons and activities with Rayonier workers. During the experience, standards from the book and applied to the real world situations relative to their county! This is an outstanding opportunity to see science in action!
