Let's Celebrate FFA Week 2023!
Mrs. Burley's senior advisory and Ms. Milford's freshman advisory class paired up for mentoring and sharing things that bring them joy! They then wrote down their thoughts and connected them together to create a Joyful Bulldog PAWSitivity chain!
Today, during Advisory, Ms. Milford and Mr. Eisemann took their classes outside to engage in a social emotional activity. Students tossed a big ball covered in questions to one another. When the ball was caught, students had to answer the question that was closest to their right thumb and then pass it on their peers. This was used as a way to get to know one another better.
Today is School Resource Officer Appreciation Day, and we have the best!! Be sure to thank them for all they do!!
On Friday, Mr. Valle's History class learned how to make game pieces, using 3D Doodlers, to go with the game boards they are designing. This is part of an ongoing project within the class. Thanks to Ms. Vaughn and Mrs. Brumfield, division ITRTs, for their assistance with this project.
